Is there a recommended process to "upgrade" XBMCBuntu to a git compiled version?
I had been using a full 12.04 install and compiling xbmc from git on it, but I'd like to possibly move to using a compiled xbmc from git in xbmcbuntu.

I would also really like this!

I was able to get it done by doing the following.....

1. clone git repo -

git clone git://github.com/xbmc/xbmc.git /home/xbmc/XBMC-GIT

2. install required packes - open /home/xbmc/XBMC-GIT/docs/README.ubuntu and copy/paste the commands into the terminal

3. from the terminal -

cd ~/XBMC-GIT
./bootstrap;./configure --prefix=/usr;make -j4
sudo make install

A couple things to note -
The --prefix=/usr is important because it installs xbmc to the current existing locations
I believe there have been some issues with the compile failing due to something with airtunes, so if the compile files you need to add --disable-airtunes in the configure (./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-airtunes)
