I've added the repository as described in the wiki http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kod...ment_build
The wiki says "Use ppa:team-xbmc/xbmc-nightly for nightly builds" but when running apt-get update/apt-get upgrade it installs "kodi-bin 2:15.0~git20150623.0200-95a4fdc-0precise"


The package is over a week old. Am I doing something wrong or is the build system broken?

I don’t think packages for nightly ppa are actually being built in a nightly fashion, for what reason idk.

That's confusing... So there are no deb packages available for last nights build?

No - as package builder is on holidays. If you need them, build yourself for the time being.

Ah, that's why. I've got it solved by installing a Milhouse build on my Raspberry Pi instead.

Thanks!

Not sure how that relates to the x86 ppa ... but yeah, fine when you are ...

That explains the delay.

I just wanted last nights build. Since I'm lazy, it was simpler for me to get a nightly for the RPi than setting up my own build environment. I just thought that I should share how I solved my issue.

I think the point is you cant get RPI builds on the PPA.

I feel like I'm creating confusion here.
My objective was to test a PR: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/7375
Since I'm on a Linux x86 box right now I thought that the quickest way would be to add the nightly ppa. When it turned out that nightly builds was not available for x86 I went on using a build for another platform as the bugfix is platform independent.

Figured it would be something like that but since you never said it...

Did it fix it?

Sometimes it is hard to judge how much (unrelated) information you should share...

And yes, the fix worked.

It wasn’t that unrelated. Glad it worked. mark as solved and enjoy.
