Add the xbmc unstable ppa:
Quote:sudo apt-add-repository ppa:team-xbmc/unstable
Refresh package lists and install xbmc
Quote:sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install xbmc
To remove xbmc and the ppa from your system
Quote:sudo ppa-purge ppa:team-xbmc/unstable

Thanks! If I install the new one without installing the old one, will it keep my settings?
- daisychick - 2012-03-03 19:18
oh, and it says it's at the newest version when i ran the update. I made sure to remove all other xbmc ppas. I'm running XBMC 11.0.RC1 according to system info.

Did you use the following to update? It usually won't work unless you do both of these in this order.
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade- daisychick - 2012-03-03 19:29
yep. just did that. same thing. still says it's the latest version.

What version of Ubuntu are you running?
- daisychick - 2012-03-04 01:18
11.10

Should have worked unless you removed the PPA from your system. If you removed it, re-add it and update/upgrade. Just don't remove the PPA and you should be good.

Nope. Still no luck. The PPA is there but it says I have the latest version.
Code:
jess@mediaserver:~$ sudo apt-get install xbmc
