I add the software sources from the PPA links, and the Package Manager keeps telling me that XBMC wont install due to "unresolvable dependencies" XBMC, XBMC-common, and XBMC-skins-default dont seem to match up and wont install together. I tried following the readme and when i get to the "sva up" it tells I am at revision 13682. When i do "make clean" it tells me "make: *** No rule to make target `clean'. Stop." and attempting to get the necessary dependencies fails as well. Crap im lost! Please help!
The readme is for the SVN install of XBMC. You don't need to do any of that if you are going to do the PPA install. Try this:
Code:
apt-get update
then try this:
Code:
apt-get upgrade
I just did that on my box and everything worked just fine. See if it works for you.
