Didn't I suggest that?https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas
if you click that link and search for libmms you end up with this (very difficult searching I find)
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas?name_filter=libmms
now pick a ppa that has the version you want. (hint your USING LUCID)
If you dont know how to use ppas, no sweat. google has the answer
then you pick the right topic...

if that is still too difficult let me know.
cheers.
Hi,
I already found the launchpad site after your first reaction, only I searched for XBMC and backport, and the first one gave me a lot of hits, but I couldn t find any details to what libmms version it comes with. Searching fo backport didn t help me a lot eather.
I also fail to see the logic why searching for libmms wil only display versions with 0.6 (or higher). For you it s probably very, very logical, but for an XBMC user without a lot of Linux experience, I can tell you it isn't.
Anyway, I will take your word for it, that the versions shown with this filter will have the correct libmms version.
So, if I understand correctly, the version on the bottom of this page:
https://launchpad.net/~alexandr-surkov/+archive/xbmc
should be the version I need, right?
And following the manual you gave me, I should be able to install this in the following way:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alexandr-surkov/xbmc
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade xbmc
After this, I should end up with a replaced xbmc binary which will have the new libmms included?
