Hello... I'm trying to upgrade to the latest version of frodo 12.3. When I do the update via the terminal, it tells me the latest version is already installed; however, in system info, instead of reflecting the 12/25 update date, my compiled date reads: "XBMC 12.3 Git:9ed3e58 (Compiled: Dec 13 2013)". The system sometimes freezes right after setup so I was hoping the update would help with stability...thanks for any help!
What version of linux are you running?
What is the output of
Code:
apt-cache policy xbmc
?
Hi, i think i had a similar problem, Check if you have the repository added from XBMC, for my system it was not the case.
After adding the repo, the upgrade brought up something new.
You already have the newest Frodo version as far as I can tell.
Wasn't 12.3 released on Xmas Day, his build is 13 December.
Actually the last commit to frodo was 12 December, so it probably is the final code, although the git strings don't seem to match:
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commits/Frodo
Last commit is 9ed3e580ea7c000541273cbac116ec9e314124ca
Thats what I thought I was saying, but that string doesn't seem to appear in the package name:
Installed: 2:12.3~git20131213.0944-frodo-0saucy
The string in the first post confirms the correct version is installed:
XBMC 12.3 Git:9ed3e58 (Compiled: Dec 13 2013)
and the apt-cache policy results tally with the
package information:
Code:
xbmc-bin_12.3~git20131213.0944-frodo-0precise_amd64.deb 24-Dec-2013 21:32 12M
xbmc-bin_12.3~git20131213.0944-frodo-0precise_i386.deb 24-Dec-2013 21:32 12M

So all is good by my fingers.
Sooooo.... if there's a problem on startup, it isn't going to be fixed by another Frodo version. It's debug log or upgrade to Gotham time.
that's what I was confused about...thought 12/25 was the release date even though my version does say 12.3... does xbmc update itself with linux b/c it was displaying the 12.3 release before I did so via the terminal
