Installing Storeman

Important notes

  • If you experience issues when installing, removing or updating packages after a SailfishOS upgrade, try running devel-su pkcon refresh in a terminal app.
  • Starting with version 0.2.9, Storeman is built by the help of the SailfishOS-OBS and initially installed by the Storeman Installer (or manually). To update from Storeman < 0.2.9 (needs SailfishOS ≥ 3.1.0), one should reinstall Storeman via the Storeman Installer (which installs the current Storeman release, and since Storeman Installer 1.3.0 automatically removes a Storeman < 0.3.0 before that) or manually remove Storeman < 0.2.9 and install Storeman ≥ 0.3.0. After an initial installation of Storeman ≥ 0.3.0, further updates of Storeman will be performed within Storeman, as usual.
  • Before software can be build for a SailfishOS release at the SailfishOS-OBS, Jolla must create a corresponding "download on demand (DoD)" OBS-repository. It may take a little time after a new SailfishOS release is published before the corresponding "DoD" repository is being made available, during which installing Storeman by the Storeman Installer or updating Storeman by itself on a device with the new SailfishOS release already installed does not work, because Storeman cannot be compiled for this new SailfishOS release at the Sailfish-OBS, yet; consequently this is always the case for "closed beta (cBeta)" releases of SailfishOS. In such a situation one has to manually download Storeman built for the last prior SailfishOS "general availability (GA)" release (e.g. from its releases section at GitHub or the SailfishOS-OBS), then install or update Storeman via pkcon install-local <downloaded RPM file>, and hope that there is no change in the new SailfishOS release which breaks Storeman; if there is, please report that soon at Storeman's issue tracker.
  • Disclaimer: Storeman and its installer may still have flaws, kill your kittens or break your SailfishOS installation! Although this is very unlikely after years of testing by many users, new flaws may be introduced in any release (as for any software). Mind that the license you implicitly accept by using Storeman or Storeman Installer excludes any liability.
