- 'Install Unofficial XBMC Build' (listing the Install XBMC section as a step, then lists other steps)
- 'Uninstall XBMC'
- 'Update Unofficial XBMC Build'
- 'What to do in case of trouble', i.e. uninstall XBMC > Install Official > Install Unofficial
Personally, I'm not sure what to do if I run into probs, i.e. remove XBMC and install the unofficial .deb or install the official XBMC first then install the unofficial .deb. When I get to that bridge I'll try both, but putting the info in the original post might answer a few questions before they're asked.
FWIW, and I don't mean to be a jackass so feel free to ignore, but the install/uninstall instructions might be easier to follow if they matched the formatting in the official build install instructions from the wiki (i.e. prefixed with a '$', and comments underneath).
Definitely. I will actually just post up the instructions to setup the repos so my build should just pull that stuff down and then you don't need to install the official XBMC repo. I wrote my other post in a rush and wasn't thinking.
Hope that's more clear. I didn't get as in-depth as you suggested, but if they can't understand that.. I really don't feel they should be trying this build.
