never use aptitude, when you use apt-get.
You could breake some things, so that you have a lot of problems.

@ Bricky
Sorry for bothering but I’m having this huge problem and I don’t know how to fix it. I read your instructions but I’m not familiarized with these sort of codes. All the instructions I need to type them in “Terminal” at a time? I’ll be very thankfull if you can help me with this and sorry for my ignorance.

Thanks in advance!

Comment on O2 Ireland Roaming in Argentina does not work by Bricky

Well, it worked for a few weeks, but hasn’t worked since.
I can still send/receive SMS messages, but phone calls, mms, and data are all off limits unfortunately.

This is still better than any other Irish mobile operator (which don’t work at all), but not the full functionality that O2 claim.

@Pablo
The instructions above are for 10.6 Pablo, I’m not sure if they’ll work the same for 10.5.8.

I’d suggest you first check if the new ICU was installed correctly, run the following
ls -l /usr/share/icu/icudt40l.dat
if it says “No such file or directory”, or if the date on the file is wrong (not the date you compiled it), then that’s the problem.

Maybe try downloading the ICU tarball for 10.5.8 instead

curl -O http://www.opensource.apple.com/tarballs/ICU/ICU-8.11.4.tar.gz
And proceed with the remainder of the instructions as above. I don’t know if it’ll work, but you may have better luck.

@ Bricky

I installed Xcode and run these commands:
./runConfigureICU MacOSX –with-data-packaging=archive
gnumake
sudo install -o root -g wheel -m 0644 -Sp data/out/icudt40l.dat /usr/share/icu/icudt40l.dat

Then I restarted my Mac and still have the wrong time.

I don’t know what is happening, can you help me, please?

Thanks.

@ Bricky
Hi Bricky, thanks for your help.

The strange thing is that I have wrong time only on the Menu Bar. Correct time is showed on my widgets and, on the zdump.

Do you think I have to compile ICU? Is this the only way? I’m asking because I never compile a thing.

Right now I’m downloading the Xcode (w/ iPhone sdk). I think this is what I need for my MacOS10.5.8.
Can you send me the rights commands?
