XBMC Ubuntu PPAs (precompiled PPA builds for Ubuntu)

Perfect, thanks

Just for the record there was no keymap.xml in the userdata root folder (or the system folder) but when I placed a keymap.xml in the userdata root folder, XBMC used this keymap file

You only need the modifications you want to make in the userdata version. The rest will be taken from system.

Hey Denmich,

I was having the same problem (disappears immediately), but from the command line the error would be GLXBadDrawable. I disabled the Compiz effects and XBMC works perfectly. You could try that.

However if anyone knows why installing "8.10a4-hardy1" from Synaptic doesn't work with Compiz, that'd be nice too.

We always recommend disabling compiz.

Is there something wrong with the server? I added the repositories, but it couldn't download the files.

Why does xbmc ppa overwrite ubuntus python-apport? It shouldn't overwrite any of ubuntus own packages!

There are any debian repository of XBMC?
I used XBMC ubuntu's repository in my sid but now with the new dependencies it has broken my system.
I can't remove apport:

sudo dpkg --force-all --purge apport
(Lettura del database ... 215260 file e directory attualmente installati.)
Rimuovo apport ...
* Stopping automatic crash report generation: apport /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh: line 266: runlevel: command not found
/etc/lsb-base-logging.sh: line 271: exit: Stopping: numeric argument required

dpkg: errore processando apport (--purge):

Sono occorsi degli errori processando:
apport

and I can't install XBMC...

The PPA has a new version of apport that allows to report non Ubuntu packages crash to Launchpad, adding all important information to the bug report.

Anyway, here is the dependency graph :
xbmc->xbmc-common->xbmc-test-helper->apport

xbmc-test-helper depends on apport, whatever the version so you can still use the old ubuntu apport . But we won't benefit of your crash report.

SystemR89: don't use the PPA apport version, just keep the debian one.

apport doesn't exist in debian
Reply
ahh, This is indeed a problem :-(
So your problem is the xbmc apport version not working on debian, right ?
Looks like some dependencies are missing ...
