Hello guys. we have a big trouble to install prey on Sailfish OS Version 2.0.2.48 (i486 / armv7l)

I figured a workaround out. The issue is really not with Prey, but with Jolla lsb_release files are not correct

specifically, we need to change the file

/etc/hw-release

by adding this line to the top of the file

Mer release 02011 Jolla

This will allow to setup the account and activate it on Prey servers
