Kodi 17.4: no upgrade option

[joehc]

Hello

About 2 weeks my raspberry pi would not boot (could not read from sdcard). At that moment I had Kodi 17.4 installed. I was forced to reinstall. But then I remembered I had made a backup image of earlier, back when I had kodi 17.3. I restored the image and the raspberry pi came back online with 17.3.
However, no I can't upgrade to 17.4 anymore. There is not option for it under xbian-config module inside kodi. I have run updates multiple times in the xbian-config module (not sudo apt-get update), but with no luck.

How can I force an upgrade from 17.3 to 17.4?

As I was desperate I tried to see what sudo apt-get update would say and it returned:

Terminal

N: Ignoring file '50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist' in directory '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension

Does that have anything to say?

My installation is:

Terminal

cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="XBian 1.0 (knockout)"
NAME=XBian
VERSION_ID=1.0
VERSION="1.0 (knockout)"
ID=raspbian
ID_LIKE=debian
ANSI_COLOR="1;31"
HOME_URL="http://www.xbian.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="http://forum.xbian.org/"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/issues"

Terminal

uname -a
Linux xbian 4.9.58+ #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Oct 24 17:20:12 CEST 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux

Hope anyone can help

Thanks

Don't worry about that

What happens if you run

Terminal

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

And btw, I can not believe that there is no option inside Kodi's xbian-config

There must be an Update category

Sorry my bad, I did not explain it right. There is a update category under xbian-config-gui, but it does not prompt me updating to kodi 17.4, which I thought it would.

If I run:

Terminal

Sudo apt-get update
Sudo apt-get upgrade

It gives me a really long list of packages that needs to be updated. I have not done that, because I thought it would break the system. I have only run the updates in the xbian-config-gui.

The output:

Terminal

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

Seems your files /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list are messed up

Please show me those files and output of

Terminal

cat /etc/debian_version

FYI:
Only 15 files available for upgrade (in alphabetic order) are displayed in xbian-config GUI, and xbian-package-xbmc is nealy at the end of the upgrade list and not shown

9.1

Okay, but I'm not sure what that means :/

[Nachteule]

Ad 1: You did not post /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list
You have still some Debian Jessie entries there
Ad 2: 9.1 means you're running Debian Stretch

Ah sry, my bad:

You're mixing packages built for Jessie and Stretch together. This is a really bad idea

Yeah okay I can see that. So if I remove the entry for Jessie, an update for kodi 17.4 should automatically appear?

Okay, deleted the jessie entry, and upgraded alle the packages with sudo apt-get upgrade, and now I have kodi 17.5 and problems, so big THANKS .
But I'm curious, why didn't the update category in xbian-config upgrade all the packages e.g. xbian-packages-xbmc? Aren't I supposed to do all my updates in the update category?

Usually the "update all" button does update all upgradeable packages (all which are displayed and all which are not displayed, because only 15 are displayed as already told)

Maybe the jessie entry confused xbian-config a bit , don't know
