Problem description:

Hallo
When I SSH into xbian (on RPI B+), there is a blinking message:

216 packages can be updated.
0 updates are security updates.

However, when running 'apt-get upgrade', it does nothing:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Is it expected behaviour? How should I upgrade to the latest xbian? Unfortunately, I was not able to find an answer on the forum, so sorry if I have missed something ...

Thank you very much,
Dan T.


P.S. When I looked at the latest XBian_Latest_rpi.img, there are different items in /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list. Mine is (comments excluded):

/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list:
deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt stable main rpi-wheezy

which agrees with http://www.xbian.org/faq/. But the XBian_Latest_rpi.img is:

/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ jessie main non-free

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list:
deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt stable main rpi-jessie

I forgot to mention that I carried out the steps described in http://www.xbian.org/faq/ under "The APT repository at xbian.brantje.com seems to be unreachable", since I have been affected by the error.

Also, running sudo apt-get update seems to never end, producing this output:

Manually install xbian-package-repo. That should fix your sources.

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunatelly, it did not helped as xbian-package-repo is up to date:

I have also tried sudo apt-get install xbian-package-repo --reinstall, but is also did not stopped after the second OK. The output is as follows:

Did I do it right?
Thank you again.

Any other advice, please?
Thank you.

This is really strange. I will test few options that came to my mind and let you know if they work.

Thank you very much! Looking forward to hear what you find.

Anyway, I have new RPi 3 with new XBian installation now. So the update is not problem anymore.
