[HOW-TO] Compile XBMC git master branch on Linux - Bluray optional - h.udo - 2011-03-03
Compile XBMC master branch on Linux
This guide was originally published on my site. For clarity and brevity, I removed a few things (recompiling XBMC, managing different compiled XBMC versions, compiling with VirtualBox to always have a clean compiling environment, etc). I also removed a bunch of stuff explaining what the commands do. Consider this to be the quick guide and the original to be the I-wish-to-find-out-more-about-this-stuff guide. Either way, you will end up with a compiled from master XBMC. Original guide can be found in the above link or on my signature. Drop me a line, suggestion, whatever, either here or on the site.
These instructions are for Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick 32bits Desktop but can help you compile on other Linux distributions or previous Ubuntu versions.
I don't like to use sudo. If you do, add sudo before every command.
In order to change to superuser (root), you need to give it a password. Open terminal and issue the following command:
Quote:sudo passwd root
Change to root:
Quote:su
You are now the proud owner of superuser superpowers. Use them wisely!
Installing XBMC build dependencies
Quote:apt-get install git-core autopoint checkinstall libvdpau-dev libvdpau1 make g++ gcc gawk pmount libtool nasm yasm automake cmake gperf zip unzip bison libsdl-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-gfx1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libfribidi-dev liblzo2-dev libfreetype6-dev libsqlite3-dev libogg-dev libasound-dev python-sqlite libglew-dev libcurl3 libcurl4-gnutls-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev libmad0-dev libogg-dev libvorbisenc2 libsmbclient-dev libmysqlclient-dev libpcre3-dev libdbus-1-dev libhal-dev libhal-storage-dev libjasper-dev libfontconfig-dev libbz2-dev libboost-dev libenca-dev libxt-dev libxtst-dev libxmu-dev libpng-dev libjpeg-dev libpulse-dev mesa-utils libcdio-dev libsamplerate-dev libmpeg3-dev libflac-dev libiso9660-dev libass-dev libssl-dev fp-compiler gdc libwavpack-dev libmpeg2-4-dev libmicrohttpd-dev libmodplug-dev libssh-dev gettext
Add (almost) all dependencies with a few lines. Last time I tried, it didn't work as expected. Want to give it a try? Run
Quote:add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc-svn/ppa
apt-get update
apt-get build-dep xbmc
Either way, install all the dependencies needed.
Compile XBMC with Bluray support. If you don't want it, ignore and remove --enable-libbluray from the configure command. Warning: does not provide the ability to play protected Blurays, only unprotected. Add libbluray to the system
Quote:add-apt-repository ppa:hackurx/libbluray
apt-get update
apt-get install libbluray
Change to building directory and clone XBMC git
Quote:cd /usr/local/src
git clone git://github.com/xbmc/xbmc.git
Change to XBMC directory
Quote:cd xbmc
You are in XBMC git master branch but check it anyway
Quote:git checkout master
Building XBMC
Quote:./bootstrap
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-pulse --enable-libbluray --enable-vdpau
make -j3
The -j3 make switch controls how many cores to use when compiling. Set accordingly.
Quote:checkinstall -y --fstrans=no --install=yes --pkgname=hudo-xbmc --pkgversion="git`date +%Y%m%d`.`git rev-list --abbrev-commit --max-count=1 HEAD`"
Done! Go to Applications >> Sound & Video >> XBMC Media Center.

I suggest using sudo for the things that need it and doing everything else as a normal user.
Cheers,

Making sure you're on your home directory and clone XBMC git. If you want to compile XBMC on /usr/local/src directory like I do or any other directory other that home, every command as to be preceded with sudo.

git clone git://github.com/xbmc/xbmc.git

sqlite - Grenti - 2011-03-04
Hi,
I keep running into this error after running "make"
/home/xbmc/setup/xbmc/xbmc/dbwrappers/sqlitedataset.cpp:210: undefined reference to `sqlite3_open_v2'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [xbmc.bin] Error 1
I feel like I've searched everywhere for a solution. Any ideas?
Thanks
- h.udo - 2011-03-04
OK.
If you installed all the needed dependencies, libsqlite3-dev should be in your system. Is it?
System you are building on? 32 or 64bits? git commit? configure command options?
- Grenti - 2011-03-04
I do have libsqlite3-dev. I'm using ubuntu on apple tv. 32 bits. Everything seems to be up to date and I've followed your guide in terms of the git commit and configure command options.
- h.udo - 2011-03-04
Well, I have no way to compile on AppleTV. I don't own one to test with.
Furthermore, my guide doesn't point to a specific git commit. It points to XBMC git master branch HEAD commit. That means it always points to the latest commit.
To find out the commit, issue
git rev-list --max-count=1 HEAD
or
git rev-list --abbrev-commit --max-count=1 HEAD
Please seek help on the AppleTV section. I know we are talking of Ubuntu but the machines are completely different. It seems to be a problem with dependency libraries.
The offending line in that is file is:
Quote:if (sqlite3_open_v2(db_fullpath.c_str(), &conn, flags, NULL)==SQLITE_OK)
Please post if you find the solution. I'll investigate some more.

You don't need to sudo to git clone. That was the point I was making. Anything after installing the packages for build can be done without sudo (other than make install, should you wish to do that).
- h.udo - 2011-03-05
Apparently ubuntu doesn't like to make git clones in /usr/local/src without sudo. It also doesn't like a lot of things if we do them _out_ of /home/$user. Just throws the "not allowed" and "you're not root" at you. The arrogant little prick.
This is exactly why I don't like sudo. Too much hassle. A simple su and life is so much simpler.
BTW, I ran into errors running ./bootstrap and ./configure without sudo.
I'm going to upgrade my main machine to Maverick tomorrow and give it another spin. Things may be different in a real system. A VirtualBox machine isn't the same thing. Close, but not the same...
- jmarshall - 2011-03-05
Ok, so why are you extracting to /usr/local/src ?
- davilla - 2011-03-05
sqlite3_open_v2 missing relates to the version of sqlite3 that is installed. Older version will not have this symbol. You might have to manually download and install an updated sqlite3. sqilte3-3.6.11 does have this symbol.
- Grenti - 2011-03-05
i had sqlite 3.7.5 amalgamation installed. i uninstalled it and tried to install sqlite3-3.6.11 and got this error
./.libs/libsqlite3.so: undefined reference to `sqlite3BackupUpdate'
./.libs/libsqlite3.so: undefined reference to `sqlite3BackupRestart'
./.libs/libsqlite3.so: undefined reference to `sqlite3BtreeCopyFile'

jmarshall Wrote:Ok, so why are you extracting to /usr/local/src ?
2 reasons:
- because I like it
- because I don't like to use home. Way too many different things automatically dumped there. It just feels... dirty!
I'm a control freak.
