xbmc wont install- unmet dependencies - rflores2323 - 2011-11-27

atv version 4.3 (2557)

I just got an atv2 and JB it with seasonpass. I then installed nitotv and it installed fine. I tried to install xbmc thru nitotv and it gave me a unmet dependencies.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2: Depends: org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

I then went to wiki and followed the instructions there and same thing.

See below

any help on how to get this installed?

Some weird server/mirror problem, maybe? All the files from the XBMC repo get distributed by a network of mirrors, so maybe one of those servers was having issues. I'm able to access those files from http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2/ so I would just wait a while and try again.

See what aptitude can do for you. It usually tries to resolve all that. Read what it spits out and give it a thumbs up (Y) or thumbs down (n) on what it suggests.

While aptitude is present in apt-get, it's not there by default under atv2.

when do I do this step in the below Huh

before installing xbmc?

Code:
apt-get install wget

wget -O- http://apt.awkwardtv.org/awkwardtv.pub | apt-key add -

echo "deb http://apt.awkwardtv.org/ stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awkwardtv.list

echo "deb http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2 ./" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.list

apt-get update

apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2

- davilla - 2011-11-28

apt-get update
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2

Those are the only steps needed as Seas0nPass will (should) have done everything else during the jb.

try:

apt-get update
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2

your install is totally borked. re-jailbreak with the current Seas0nPass and just do:

apt-get update
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2

None of these other magic incantations are required. They are indications of something very wrong with apt.
