Hi all,
First post to the forum. First, thanks to the OP, to the folks who have put together the code, and to those who help those of us who are stumbling. I have had XBMC Eden running on Ubuntu 12.04 in parallel with Sickbeard, Couch Potato and SABNZB. I have just picked up a TV tuner and have been attempting to get this working for the last couple days until realizing that I would likely have more success by going back to Ubuntu 11.10. I have done this, with a clean install and am working on installing this version of XBMC (TSP's Eden-pvr). I have run into the same problem that another user had and can's figure out how to get past it - I am stuck at the ./bootstrap step. I am getting the "./bootstrap: 5: autoreconf: not found" error. Here is what I have done so far:
Clean install of Ubuntu 11.10 (64 bit) - All software updates applied
I applied the dependencies by cutting and pasting the list in Post 11 to terminal. I get the following exceptions:
Code:
Note, selecting 'libsdl1.2-dev' instead of 'libsdl-dev'
Note, selecting 'libglew1.6-dev' instead of 'libglew-dev'
Note, selecting 'libfontconfig1-dev' instead of 'libfontconfig-dev'
Note, selecting 'libpng12-dev' instead of 'libpng-dev'
Note, selecting 'libjpeg62-dev' instead of 'libjpeg-dev'
Note, selecting 'libsamplerate0-dev' instead of 'libsamplerate-dev'
Package libasound-dev is a virtual package provided by:
liboss4-salsa-dev 4.2-build2004-1ubuntu2
libasound2-dev 1.0.24.1-0ubuntu10
You should explicitly select one to install.
I did a sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev.
I applied the Boost files by doing a sudo apt-get install for each of the three items in Post #1:
Boost version 1.42 or later is needed. On Ubuntu make sure to install libboost-regex-dev and libboost-filesystem-dev in addition to libboost-dev
I grabbed the git with the following:
sudo apt-get install git-core
git clone https://github.com/tsp/xbmc.git
... and changed into the created xbmc directory:
cd xbmc
All good so far. Here is where I'm stuck. I tried the
./bootstrap command and get the same result as Craig did in his post (around #10)
./bootstrap: 5: autoreconf: not found
WHAT I HAVE TRIED:
./bootstrap - above error
sudo ./bootstrap - same error
sudo chown -R pete.pete ~/xbmc and retry without sudo - same error
Reboot system and retry with and without sudo - same error
Redo dependancies - I still get the same result as before with the libsound exception...
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
