I have Ubuntu 11.10 oneiric installed and I've put XBMC 11.0-Beta1 (Compiled: Dec 12 2011) on it. It works great, but lately it's been acting up with random bugs still present in this beta...

I was wondering if there was an easy way to update to the newest Eden Beta 3? I've tried updating:

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/unstable
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc

But the system only gives me:

Code:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
xbmc is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 3 not upgraded.

...but it's not the newest, since it's an older Beta... Am I doing this right?

Thanks for the help

Just a little bump: Not sure if it matters, compile version it says: Git Unknown.

I'm not sure what it means...

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

EDIT: no need for that.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/unstable

It looks right to me...and the rest of the commands are correct.
The only thing I can think of is that you used something else than team-xbmc/unstable before and that is blocking.
You could alway do sudo apt-get purhe xbmc and then re-install and see what you end up. I think you will see where it installs from.

Thanks!

That seem to have worked - I was able to upgrade to the newest build now!

I checked my /etc/apt/sources.list.d to see what I had installed, and noticed that I had some ppa's that were outdated (I'm not even sure how they got there now).

I used ppa-purge to remove some of them, purged xbmc and tried the command set again, and seems like I was able to finally update to the latest nightly build.

Now version says XBMC 11.0-PRE Git:Unknown (Compiled: Feb 26 2012)
