what version of XBIAN are you running? this looks very very old.

I am on XBian 1.0 Alpha 5. But there has always been packages held back. So that might explain the old packages. Since, almost, everything worked I have not reported any problems.

Quote:you need also the repo for raspbian. currently it is

Code:

deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free rpi

add the second repo I posted and do "apt-get clean" before update. and try again.

I uncommented the repo you suggested. Now the packages downloads and the upgrade starts. Apt refused to go past

. But after a few apt-clean and apt-upgrade it worked!

Thanks a lot for all the help!

Just a note that the upgrade is not finished yet. Currently it is "rebalancing filesystem". So perhaps there will be panic in my next post. But so far so good! If everything completes without further ado I'll try to post a summary of all the steps.
