Problems upgrading to the latest BETA. - kaandorp - 2009-11-24 I'm trying to install the latest BETA, but somehow the XBMC package is greyed out in the Ubuntu Upgrade Manager. When I try to do an "apt-get upgrade" I see the following "error" at the end: Code: The following packages have been kept back: How can I upgrade to the latest BETA? - dc2447 - 2009-11-24 sudo apt-get dist-upgrade - Evanrich - 2009-11-24 I'm baffled as well. I'm a noob, but I've been using the live distro installed to a HDD since 9.04.1 was out. Since then, using wattazoum's PPA's, I've been able to "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" my way through PPA's up to Alpha 2 build 24548. Now, I've tried apt-geting, and I've tried your apt-get dist-update....the only thing I've been able to pull is a kernel update, and new nvidia drivers....no Beta1. is there some manual apt-get thing I can do, or possibly dpkg -i 9.11~beta1-jaunty2.deb or something? This is driving me bonkers I can see it on the PPA site, but can't pull.... Edit: I just manually tried to do this by doing the following: Quote:cd /tmp this worked, however when I run apt-get update/upgrade afterward, I get the following message: Quote:(T: XBMCLive)root@XBMCLive:~# apt-get upgrade It's like it doesn't realize beta1 is newer....I think my apt caches are old or something, anyone have a clue? Edit2: G-damn it. now it looks like i've got parts of two versions installed: Quote:(T: XBMCLive)root@XBMCLive:/tmp# apt-get upgrade alpha2 and beta 1.....think my stuff is all mucked up now...anyone know how to get just beta1 and remove all traces of alpha2? In the meantime, I've just rolled back to my image of alpha2, guess I'll stay here till a new Live CD comes out, then totally start from scratch. - kaandorp - 2009-11-24 dc2447 Wrote:sudo apt-get dist-upgradeDoesn't work. I get exactly the same: Code: xbmc@xbmc-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Any more suggestions ? - hippojay - 2009-11-24 I got the same with an apt-get update/upgrade, so I just installed the packages instead: apt-get install xbmc xbmc-common xbmc-skin-pm3-hd xbmc-web-pm3 Which then detected these as upgraded packages and progressed normally. Beta1 installed, no ill effects. - kaandorp - 2009-11-24 hippojay Wrote:I got the same with an apt-get update/upgrade, so I just installed the packages instead:When I do this I get: Code: xbmc@xbmc-desktop:~$ - hippojay - 2009-11-24 apt-get install libass ? Possibly - I can't remember the package name now... Fixed!! - Evanrich - 2009-11-24 I fixed my not being able to upgrade. It looks like the PPA's changed addresses. Here is my /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.org.list file: Quote:deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main The last 2 #'d lines are what I've been using since 9.04.1 to apt-get upgrades. After screwing around for a while trying to get it to work, I noticed that the Paths were different. I changed the lines around, which are now the last two above, and I was then able to apt-get update and apt-get upgrade successfully to beta1. |
