Can xbmc-eventclients-wiiremote be updated to use libbluetooth3 on Ubuntu Intrepid?
#1
Trying to get the Wii Remote to work with XBMC using Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10).

Looks like all of the xbmc-common parts have been updated to use the libbluetooth3 package, but the xbmc-eventclients-wiiremote still has a dependency on libbluetooth2 (which I'll have to get from somewhere else for it to work).

I think you should be able to install this http://packages.ubuntu.com/sv/hardy/libbluetooth2

and try again.
Although wiiremote should work with the new libbluetooth3 but the dependencies havent been bumped, so you could svn down the source and compile it yourself.

I installed the Hardy libbluetooth2 package last night and that worked fine.

Mainly posted to see if the package dependency can be resolved so it's a bit easier for anyone else that runs into that problem.

Thanks for the reply back.

Cheers,
David

Makefile must be modifier to compile right :


Code:
CXX ?= g++
CFLAGS = -Wall -pipe -fPIC -funroll-loops
OBJ_DIR = release-$(shell $(CC) -v 2>&1|grep ^Target:|cut -d' ' -f2)
OBJS = wiiuse_v0.12/src/$(OBJ_DIR)/libwiiuse.so
BIN = WiiUse_WiiRemote
VERSION = v0.12

all:
        @$(MAKE) -C wiiuse_$(VERSION)/src $@
        $(CXX) $(CFLAGS) -I./wiiuse_$(VERSION)/src WiiUse_WiiRemote.cpp $(OBJS) -o $(BIN) -l bluetooth
wiiuse:
        @$(MAKE) -C wiiuse_$(VERSION)/src
clean:
        rm $(OBJS) $(BIN)

i have just add the -l bluetooth

Cheers
