Everytime I try installing Summerboard 3.1-1 i get an message that says:

ERROR
Package download failed!

Anyone knows why this is so? And how I can correct the error?

Thanks.

There is a fix:Themes currently download into
/private/var/root/Library/SummerBoard/Themes
just copy the themes out of there and into
/private/var/mobile/Library/SummerBoard/Themes

Install community sources. then BigBoss sources. BigBoss has a tweak that fixes this error.
