I was running 9.11 on Karmic Minimal installation. Today I upgraded to Lucid and then to Maverick (still Minimal). I'm trying to upgrade to XBMC Dharma RC1 but its telling me I have the latest version already. Here's what I tried from the wiki.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc
[sudo] password for xbmc:
Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /etc/apt/secring.gpg --trustdb-name /etc/apt/trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --primary-keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 189701DA570C56B9488EF60A6D975C4791E7EE5E

gpg: key 91E7EE5E: "Launchpad PPA for XBMC for Linux" not changed
gpg: Total number processed: 1

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install xbmc

Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

sudo apt-get upgrade doesn't do anything either.

Please help.

Thx.

Also, I dont see anything xbmc in the sources.list file. Is this normal?


grep xbmc /etc/apt/sources.list

[fireberd350]

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc-svn/ppa


This looks to have done the trick. Thx harryzimm!

Now running 10.0-rc1 on Maverick

grep xbmc /etc/apt/sources.list

Also, when you add the repository through the method above, it doesn't appear in:
/etc/apt/sources.list

You'll find them in:
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/filename_of_repository.list

Hi,

Do you have to upgrade the Ubuntu install as well in order to install Dharma? Is it possible to just upgrade XBMC and leave the current functioning minimal Ubuntu install?

Thanks!
