If someone would be so kind to explain to me what needs to be edited in the XBMC 9.1b Live Build (installed to HDD) to get it to update to the latest SVN PPA's I would highly appreciate it <- Linux Newb!

sudo apt-get update/upgrade does nothing but tell me no updates exist but I am a little confused where the PPA path's need to go so it pulls from the latest SVN PPA.

Any suggestions for this?

after:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

did you try:

sudo apt-get install xbmc

To get the latest SVN, you must add this to your sources:

Code:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc-svn/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc-svn/ppa/ubuntu karmic main

Looking for any suggestions as I have not had too much success in the PPA thread (it appears people are getting the same errors and/or different errors).

I am using the correct sources for the SVN PPA:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc-svn/ppa/ubuntu karmic main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc-svn/ppa/ubuntu karmic main

One person in the PPA thread said he had to force xbmc-common to uninstall and then reinstall xbmc-common PPA to get the Beta1 LIVE image (installed to HDD) to actually start pulling SVN PPA updates. I did as suggested and upon reinstalling xbmc-common and rebooting it goes to a login prompt -- does not boot into XBMC (its possible this did work but I am by no means a Linux expert and do not know how to fix it so it boots back into XBMC directly).

Fresh install -- same sources using the apt-get -f install syntax yields this...

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xbmc: Depends: xbmc-data (= 1:9.11~beta1+svn25363-karmic1) but it is not going to be installed
Depends: xbmc-skin-confluence (= 1:9.11~beta1+svn25363-karmic1) but 9.11~beta1-karmic2 is to be installed or
xbmc-skin-pm3-hd (= 1:9.11~beta1+svn25363-karmic1) but 9.11~beta1-karmic2 is to be installed
Depends: xbmc-web-pm3 (= 1:9.11~beta1+svn25363-karmic1) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

I would appreciate any help from anyone who has successfully taken the XBMC pre-built Live 9.1b ISO installed it to the HDD and has successfully applied the SVN PPA builds there after. I have several issues in Library mode that seem to cause XBMC to crash and restart and am hoping this is fixed already.

Thanks again for any assistance with this -- I didn't think this was going to be as much trouble to update as it has been but again appreciate any assistance with this.
