[LINUX] Getting 404 when trying to update the team-xbmc ppa
#1
Hello,
I am trying to install XBMC onto Ubuntu (Natty).

Following instructions here:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ins..._for_Linux

Adding the team-XBMC repository works fine:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc

But when I update my database using:
Code:
sudo apt-get update

I get a 404 (not found error) when it gets to team-XBMC.

Code:
W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/source/Sources  404  Not Found

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.


Is the repository offline at the moment?

Thanks for any help,
BloodBaz

I dont think the current ppa covers natty
you could go in synaptic and edit the source to maverick to force it dunno what the pitfalls are to that but worked for me
Solar Powered Server Xubuntu 13.04 Sickbeard+Sabnzbd+Couchpotato+Headphones+mysql running @ 20 watts
Home Clients ATV2, Ouya, Xubuntu and Windows 8 all 13.2
Moblie Clients SGS5 SG Note II and SG Tab S all 13.2

yeah, they don't have a natty release yet. The latest is maverick, so you can just modify:

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/team-xbmc-ppa.list

and change "natty" to "maverick". then 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get install xbmc' and you should be good to go.
