Hi Slava,
Yes that's exactly what I did right after flashing: download the RPM of my app 
(BikeMe) from openrepos, enable "untrusted software" and click on the RPM. 
Since I just got a generic toast install error without info, I enabled the 
developer mode, retried and it worked.

So I reflashed Sailfish X, and this time downloaded Warehouse to see if it 
would work better. It didn't but at least it gave me the error message: 
"nothing provide qt5-plugin-geoservice-osm needed by..."
So I tried with another app that I assumed would contain the same dependency: 
Poor Maps (hey Osmo ^^) and it failed one dependency before: "nothing provides 
libsailfishapp-launcher needed by ...". I guess if I had installed an app from 
the Store with this dependency, it would have failed on 
qt5-plugin-geoservice-osm too.

And since no app in the Store includes qt5-plugin-geoservice-osm, users 
definitively need the developer mode to install our app. I agree, that's 
annoying.
Thanks.

Sylvain.

I constantly keep running into reports from users where the dependencies
cannot be found and the solution always is "pkcon refresh". As far as I
know that happens both with OpenRepos + Warehouse and the manual way you
describe. Please try to do something about this, it's annoying to tell
users they need developer mode and command line just to install an RPM.
