Hi,

Does anyone have a working PKGBUILD to build xbmc git with PVR working? I've been trying to make something work using (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=50894) and (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45036) but have been getting nowhere. It's rather distressing to be honest.

Thanks,
Tom
Try:

xbmc-git: https://archvdr.svn.sourceforge.net/svnr.../xbmc-git/
xbmc-pvr-addons: https://archvdr.svn.sourceforge.net/svnr...vr-addons/

if you use vdr with xvdr plugin don't forget to install this.
xbmc-addon-xvdr: https://archvdr.svn.sourceforge.net/svnr...ddon-xvdr/
With my xbmc-git build from yesterday and arch vdr's addons installed, XBMC runs (it even mentions pvr.htc &c in the log) but I can't see where to enable PVR. Maybe I'm missing something.

Archvdr's PKGBUILD xbmc doesn't work- it says "ERROR: unable to create application- exiting" and dies. I can't find anything interesting in xbmc.log, where else should I look?
I made some changes to ArchVDR's PKGBUILD, find my working version here:
http://codepad.org/JBQKkYuZ

commented out
# git checkout "${_gitid}"
and
# remove "--as-needed" from LDFLAGS
# unset LDFLAGS; LDFLAGS="-Wl,--hash-style=gnu"

and added git_name outside of the build(). It seems to work and run nicely on my machine at least (built on a sun server, running on an AppleTV). Finally my girlfriend might be happy!
