[SOLVED] Upgrading to Jessie

[YoYoost]

Hello,

Software
XBian version: XBian 1.0 (knockout)
XBMC/Kodi version: 14.2~RC1-1426224368
Overclock settings: None

Hardware
Device type and model: Raspberry Pi 2 Model B
Power supply rating: 5V 2000mA
SD card: PNY 8BG Class 10 (boot) with Kingston DataTraveler 100 G3 (root)
Network: Ethernet
Connected devices: TV Panasonic Viera and Kingston DataTraveler 100 G3

When I use xbian-config to update, all packages update correctly however when I try to update 'xbian-update' from 20150304-2 to 20150817-0 it fails saying "A serious error has occured while processing these packages" . The installation log says "the following packages have unmet dependencies: xbian-update : Depends: xbian-package-cec-6q but it is not in libcec but it is not installable"

I tried 'update mirrors' and 'apt-get update' in xbian-config
I tried resetting my apt-get sources from the xbian.org/faq page.
I tried to reinstall xbian-package-cec using apt-get install --reinstall.
Ofcourse I rebooted the device multiple times.

moreover when I do for example:

Terminal

sudo apt-cache policy xbian-package-xbmc
xbian-package-xbmc:
Installed: 14.2~RC1-1426224368
Candidate: 14.2~RC1-1426224368
Version table:
*** 14.2~RC1-1426224368 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Any idea what is wrong?

Edit (solved):
This is solved with the release of 20150911-3

I am not sure about your issue, but there is a problem with upgrade at the moment. Maybe related?

Hi, just wanted to say I have the same problem.

A bit of difference is that I'm trying to update from 20150407-0 to 20150817-0 but I get the same error on apt-get install xbian-update:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xbian-update : Depends: xbian-package-cec-6q but it is not installable or
libcec but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Has somebody else been through this?

Any news on this update?

folllowing this thread with interest..

[bricki123]

still no fix after 2 weeks for this epic-fail?

sorry guys, but whats wrong with xbian? nearly no development anymore! wake up!
maybe its better switch to OSMC. there is much more active development...

[Dave400]

Should Xbian be running off Debian Jessie or is that part of the update that will also bring Kodi 15.x?

[bricki123]

i think Debian Jessie is far far far far away from xbian...
i cant see it for many months if there is no development...

[Smultie]

I'm running Jessie for months.

New images are also already on Jessie. We are just waiting for @mk01 to polish the upgrade from Wheezy to Jessie.

I just tried upgrading a pi1 and pi2 both with 'serious error' messages.

Dependency issues with

Depends: libc6 (>= 2.17) but 2.13-38+rpi etc...
Depends libstdc++6 (>= 4.8.1) bit 4.7.2 etc...

When I try to correct the problem I get the following......

Terminal

xbian@cinema ~ $ sudo apt-get install libc6
[sudo] password for xbian:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libc6 is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 14 not upgraded.

And.....

Terminal

xbian@cinema ~ $ sudo apt-get install libstdc++6

libstdc++6 is already the newest version.

Updated today my Pi 1 B and zero issues with APT-GET ... i also had 14 packages to update.

So far everything OK.

Hi, I see that there is a new updateable version (20150906-0) but I still get the same error.
@CurlyMo was this one the fix update that you mentioned that was coming?
