Title: AppBrowser reports "opera-11 is already installed!"
Post by: blouie on March 06, 2012, 01:23:01 AM

Trying to install opera browser.
AppBrowser reports "opera-11 is already installed!"
And, System Stats shows oper-11 in its list.
But, opera-11 does not show up in AppsAudit.

First-time user of Tiny Core 3.8.4.

it seems that was deleted file opera-11.tcz, but left checksum file opera-11.tcz.md5.txt
then the System Stats will display opera-11 in its list, but AppBrowser will report "opera-11 is already installed!"
likely if file tce/optional/opera-11.tcz is absent then need to delete a file tce/optional/opera-11.tcz.md5.txt if it was left

Manual hacking will cause unexpected results. Using the system's supplied features will not.
