Linux Dependency Problem

I'm trying to install XBMC on my Picuntu installation, but I'm having some difficulties with it. I added the "ppa:team-xbmc/ppa" repository, but when I enter the apt-get install xbmc command I receive the following error:

Quote:The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xbmc : Depends: xbmc-bin (>= 2:12.2~git20130502.1706-frodo-0raring) but 2:12.0~git20130103.0959-rc3-0ubuntu1b1 is to be installed

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
The OS I'm trying to install it on is Ubuntu 13.04.

I hope someone can help me out here Smile

I'd guess that all those components don't exist in the repository for your architecture. You either need to find someone who's compiled them all already, or compile XBMC and the PVR addons from source yourself.

I thought something like that already, so I was working on a compile from source Smile But it takes a long time, so I hope it works.

thats what the PPA is for Wink

@ThijsD you probably have a wrong xbmc package installed.

try:
sudo apt-get remove xbmc xbmc-bin
sudo apt-get install -f
sudo apt-get install xbmc
