hi,

I am trying to install XBMC to slackware using sbopkg.

After solving many dependencies and .so requirements during the build, I am stuck on java jre dependency where it says:

Code:

Checking for a jre installation
checking for java... none

can anyone enlighten me which java file is required in which directory?

all .so file dependencies are installed so far are to /usr/local/lib/

I have tried jdk and jre amd64 .so's but it did not work...

thanks!

Hey just download the tar.gz that corresponds to your architect over here JavaJDK Use this slackbuild slackbuildjdk. You may have to reboot or source your profile for java to be detected.

you need at least a jre - java runtime, not any shared libs.

after removing sbo xbmc installation files and redownloading the xbmc files now I am facing TAGLIB library not found error.

I installed the latest version 1.9.1 from the souce(with cmake, make, and make install) and still facing the issue... anyone faced this one?

I also tried to install directly from github and stuck at the TAGLIB dependency...

anyone had this problem?

thanks everyone!

you'll have to install taglib headers in a standard location e.g. /usr/include or /usr/local/include.
This actually is a bug in xbmc, but its not an easy fix due to our multi-platform nature.
