There is no documentation whatsoever on how to compile a XBMCBuntu iso from git source.
Readmes are still left incomplete and contain no detailed info on how to. Upon several tries which all failed and examination of the buildscripts, all I was able to gleam is little more than what dependecies can be installed and that you can define some flags.
to little or no effect.
Please llcaprioty, or sraue os smomene please provide their expert insights so I can turn into proper documentation and maybe start getting some builds out.
Things that can be gleamed for source are
https://github.com/xbmc/XBMCbuntu
Dependencies are
The main build script is ./buildWithOptions which are explained inside.
I have tried running this script with said deps in ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit (because you need a 64 bit OS to build a 64bit iso... But it fails in final with cannot stat this or that file.
Yes please any assistance would be welcome to get this sorted.
Clearly we would need some further help with XBMCbuntu source, I can write documentation and tidy up other things within the source.
