can we have a stable repo for karmic plse? Just seen that versions later than 22528 are considered unstable, I guess this accounts for my system being such

XBMC put up a note on their blog saying that they won't release a stable version of 9.04 for Karmic. They don't want to take any time away from developing the next release.
The latest SVN seems pretty stable to me.

I get constant hangs with the latest svn builds and have done for a while
I remember seeing a post/page soemwhere that shows you how to use the jaunty repo and installing one missing dependancy manually to get it to work. Try a google..
Sorry I cant help more, something that I breezed past

wattazoum,
I noticed that you changed the build script so I updated and ran again against the latest versions; Do you know what goes wrong?
Now running lintian...

Pre-release of camelot is launched on PPA will be ready in say 24h. IIRC amd64 might even be done already.
xbmc.org will give you info about this.

Sounds good.
Many thanks, appreciate the information
I see the alph has hit the svn repo - anyone upgraded yet?
I am not sure if I am missing something here. I not a linux expert but:
The alpha is released in the stable PPA launchpad?
Is that not a problem for users trying to install stable xbmc?
I would suggest a separate path for the alpha => RC releases.
Or we should post an instruction how to install the stable version as well as how to apt-get install upgrade the system without going past the latest stable.
@wattazoum:
It looks like the bug that required the dependency on libcurl4-openssl-dev has been resolved in the 9.11 alpha. You can safely remove this dependency. This should greatly help people trying to put together a minimal xbmc installation.
I've been running for a couple of days with the dependency forced, and the package removed, and there's no longer the crash at startup.
Thanks for all your work.

I had the same "situation" here! I had a problem with crash trying to see a video. When I checked, I installed the 9.11 alpha from the PPA! I tried to found, but I wasn't able to find out how to install the stable 9.10!

I have tried SVN build in WinXP/Xbox/UBUNTU, but if the SMB share directory contain many files ( > 1000 ), the XBMC will hang on connection directory,
so I give up SVN build and use stable PPA, there is no problem,
SMB connect large file directory less then 15 second ( 1Giga Lan )
( anyone have the same SVN SMB "large file directory" problem and how to solve it ? thanks ! )
Today I boot my UBUNTU and found it do an auto-upgrade procedure,
then my XBMC become unstable, the SMB large file directory meet the same
problem as SVN build, it I connect to small file SMB directory, the video
played few minutes and jump back to UBUNTU desktop....
I check the Info and found XBMC from 9.04 to 9.11-alpha,
it seems I can not go back to 9.04 PPA,
now I tried upgrade UBUNTU from 9.04 to 9.10 and install XBMC karmic ( both PPA and SVN ) again to try if it works.
Maybe next time I should turn-off "auto-upgrade" feature in UBUNTU...

Use specific stable PPAs for you distribution on this page:

Maybe I'm stupid but I can only find the 9.11 alpha there, and that one is totally unusable on my computer.

Maybe I'm stupid too, but I can't find the stable 9.04 version anywhere.....
