I can't be the only one that switched back to 1.0a5 and wants to update XBMC to 12.2

you can revert to this commit ec2e98f4b6492f452295fd029aeef48d45e7a194 where the change has been done and install the generated package.


What does the above actually mean? How do I install this!?

I too have been trying to get Xbian 1.0A5 upgraded to XBMC 12.2. A week ago it worked fine on a test SD card I had but the upgrade no longer downloads correctly? Seems to be since the Beta was released?

RE: Official XBMC 12.2 Thread - mk01 - 2nd Jul, 2013 02:43 AM

you clone the repo from git with:

git clone https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian-package-xbmc.git

then you enter the directory created and run:

git reset --hard ec2e98f4b6492f452295fd029aeef48d45e7a194

then you just run the gen.package.sh
(it needs fakeroot installed - apt-get install fake root)

then, you install the created .deb with dpkg -i

I have just tried the above but the download location appears to be down? It started working and then bombed out. Going to https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian-package-xbmc displays "This page is taking way too long to load." Sad

The github was down but now working Smile

I have followed your install instructions above and finally made to the end with a created .deb file! But its not installing instead giving the below error:-

What am I doing wrong? Looks like I need to update extra bits, if so how?

RE: Official XBMC 12.2 Thread - Brickman - 3rd Jul, 2013 04:32 AM

I went back one more commit (before upstart is used):
Terminal
# Install fakeroot for the compilation of the package
sudo apt-get install fakeroot

sorry. probably I switched lines when copying. as Brickman saying, the one below.

The above didn't work unfortunately Sad

It was unable to install xbian-package-cec. The libbluetooth3 did install OK.

Terminal
xbian@xbian ~/xbian-package-xbmc $ sudo apt-get install xbian-package-cec

E: Unable to locate package xbian-package-cec

As a guess I then ran sudo apt-get update and then tried to install the cec package again. This time it gave a different error as below:-

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
xbian@xbian ~/xbian-package-xbmc $

I then tried to run the final command given in your reply to install the XBMC 12.2 package but this complained about the firmware and the cec package being out of date :-

Terminal

I then ran sudo apt-get install xbian-package-cec (and the same for the firmware) but both failed and it suggested running apt-get -f install which I did (see below). This did install the firmware and the CEC package but REMOVED "sysvinit" whatever that is! Huh

I then had a working Xbian XBMC 12.2 desktop but as feared it won't boot up again after a restart!


Is it an easy fix? What happened to the XBMC 12.2 upgrade that worked just over a week ago? Sad

I really appreciate all the help, thanks.

yes, everything is fixable, but it depends on the effort you are prepare to into it.
and, it was you, who confirmed with:"Yes, do as I say!"

The "Yes, do as I say!" was because I was out of options on a test build with upgrade instructions that didn't work! Sad

So i'm asking is there an easy, reliable upgrade to XBMC 12.2 available like there was just over a week ago - that's been taken down for some reason!?

RE: Official XBMC 12.2 Thread - IriDium - 4th Jul, 2013 06:20 AM

I'm being polite. As it's a test upgrade - have you looked at http://forum.xbian.org/thread-1077.html

I tried beta 1 when its was released with reasonable success but I was put off by the problems people were experiencing. I will take a look at beta 1.1 though.

With my shared SQL DB setup on my NAS I don't wont to risk break things though.

RE: Official XBMC 12.2 Thread - IriDium - 4th Jul, 2013 07:18 AM

Beta 1.1 is a lot more reliable. Most if not ALL (but I won't stake your life! on it) problems have been solved.

It seems to be stable so I would suggest go for Beta 1.1 and restart from there.

hawkpd, deb was maybe taken down, because was replaced by newer version.

but history on git is still there. when it was working week ago, with the same commit it must work again ! even someone here confirmed that.

if you will reflash your sd card, save copy of /home before that. all you need for your previous xbmc setup is there.
