Point 1:
NEVER paste log snippets because i will just ignore those. So always follow what is written here: debug log

Point2:
Care to read before asking?

"made a stupid c/p mistake.
3.1.5 should fix it. Hit force refresh on xbmc repo"

would seem to suggest he has a fix but would rather scold people than post a link

You misread. That was another error.
It was clearly stated that newer nightlies won't be fixed untill pre-frodo repo is up.
Yes I do have a fix for new nightlies but you are right. I rather terrorize users than posting a .zip file that fixes this.

The reason I do that is because some go and install the new one when they don't even need it and then come nagging that it doesn't work.

If you don't want bugs. Don't use nightlies

If you never use the new one, you can´t find errors and never go the next stepp ;-) and the world today woud out of fire and wheels.... ;-)

Thanks for your work !

Fair enough, I did see both posts but was obviously confused by them..

At any rate, hope to see the updates soon
