Console output doesn't specify the error.

However, manually installing rsync and open via cydia worked just fine.

Hi,

I was just looking into this. Did this happen when you clicked on "Install" in the status dialog? Or did you use a function that required rsync / open and it tried to install it automatically then,

Also, did the iDevice have an Internet connection at the time? (Just making sure).

Thanks, Daniel

On initial run of the program, the window automatically popped up. I tried to click the install button to install all the prereqs, but a couple failed. I tried it a couple of times, but couldn¹t get them to install, so I manually did it via apt-get/aptitude.

I think I have identified the problem. You likely had Cydia still running on the device which locks dpkg. Therefore, installing via idb failed. I added an error message with some useful information for that case. Thanks!
