Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - tret - 2014-04-06 Hi all, I installed Gotham Beta2 via the beta 2-1 iso from this thread: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=189553 I want to try out the new ReFocus Gotham preview skin however the installation instructions explicitly state that the latest gotham nightlies are required. I added the Team XBMC nightly PPA however when I check the available candidate for installation, the release naming convention makes me think it's going to install an XBMC 14 nightly (which isn't what I want to do). Am I reading the naming convention wrong? Is this the wrong method? Code: sudo apt-cache policy xbmc The PPA I added for reference: https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/xbmc-nightly Thanks all, tret RE: Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - Martijn - 2014-04-06 for Gotham you need the unstable ppa to get the betas RE: Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - tret - 2014-04-06 (2014-04-06, 17:42)Martijn Wrote: for Gotham you need the unstable ppa to get the betas Thanks for the reply. I actually want Gotham nightlies, I'm already on the latest in the Unstable PPA (Gotham Beta3). My concern is that, based on the apt-cache policy output it looks like I'd be going to an xbmc14 nightly instead of the latest xbmc13 nightly. Thanks, tret I guess something else I should ask, are nightly PPA's still being built for Gotham? RE: Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - Martijn - 2014-04-06 correct. PPA nightlies are build from master branch and not from Gotham. atm there is very little difference between Gotham and master (13.0 and 14.0) code wise. This will change over time as development progresses. RE: Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - tret - 2014-04-06 (2014-04-06, 17:52)Martijn Wrote: correct. PPA nightlies are build from master branch and not from Gotham. Gotcha, thanks. I wonder what Jeroen's intention was when he stated that users should be on the latest Gotham nightly. I'll have to ask. RE: Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - Martijn - 2014-04-06 (2014-04-06, 17:54)tret Wrote:(2014-04-06, 17:52)Martijn Wrote: correct. PPA nightlies are build from master branch and not from Gotham. All other platforms nightlies are actually build from Gotham. Linux is the exception. Beta3 is good enough for reFocus RE: Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - tret - 2014-04-06 Understood, thanks again. I'll see what Jeroen recommends for running ReFocus in this scenario. tret RE: Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - Martijn - 2014-04-06 Beta3 is good enough for reFocus RE: Gotham Nightlies from Beta2 ISO install - tret - 2014-04-06 (2014-04-06, 18:01)Martijn Wrote: Beta3 is good enough for reFocus Great, I'll give it a try.
