Updating to Kodi from 12.2 stable with XBMCbuntu (11.10) as base install - douf - 2014-12-28 Hi, I'm trying to update to the current release of Kodi from XBMC 12.2. I've already run 'sudo apt-get update', 'sudo apt-get upgrade' and then 'sudo do-release-upgrade'. I've added the following to /etc/apt/sources.list as it looks like I'm at EOL with support Code: ## EOL upgrade sources.list It's gone through and done various updates, I've rebooted and I'm still running 11.10. 'sudo apt-get install xbmc' reports its at the latest release. 'sudo apt-get install kodi' reports no package by that name.. I'd really rather not do a fresh install as I have a lot of other installed software on the system.. can anyone please throw some light at this for me? Thanks, Doug RE: Updating to Kodi from 12.2 stable with XBMCbuntu (11.10) as base install - nickr - 2014-12-28 what is the output when you do-release-upgrade ? RE: Updating to Kodi from 12.2 stable with XBMCbuntu (11.10) as base install - douf - 2014-12-28 Code: doug@minipc:~$ sudo do-release-upgrade RE: Updating to Kodi from 12.2 stable with XBMCbuntu (11.10) as base install - nickr - 2014-12-28 Does this help? http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2013/05/10/ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-ocelot-end-of-life-reached-on-may-9-2013/ RE: Updating to Kodi from 12.2 stable with XBMCbuntu (11.10) as base install - douf - 2014-12-28 It pointed me to a page that I'd been to already, though had ignored a step as the release I had was LTS so I left the prompt=LTS originally, though have just changed it to normal and it appears to be going okay. If I bugger it all up, then I guess I'll deal with reinstalling fresh. Thanks RE: Updating to Kodi from 12.2 stable with XBMCbuntu (11.10) as base install - nickr - 2014-12-28 I find a complete reinstall to be my standard approach to upgrading ubuntu. PITA though it is. RE: Updating to Kodi from 12.2 stable with XBMCbuntu (11.10) as base install - douf - 2014-12-28 it appeared to be upgrading but at the end, again, I'm left with 11.10. *grumble* Code: Checking package manager I'm just stuck living in the past... will wait till next year (next weekend) when I have more time to do a fresh install. Unless anyone else has an idea to try? RE: Updating to Kodi from 12.2 stable with XBMCbuntu (11.10) as base install - nickr - 2014-12-28 As I say, I usually reinstall. Google may be your friend. It is essentially a ubuntu problem at this point. |
