XBMC pacman install on Cubox

Postby Tach » Tue Feb 26, 2013 9:40 pm

Hi,

I couldn't find any procedure of how to install XBMC on cubox. There is a conflict between mesa and marvell-libgfx.

I tried to force marvell-libgfx to install over mesa but didn't succeed. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tach

Remove Mesa first
Upgrade system but don't upgrade libcdio at the moment
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -Syu --ignore libcdio')
Now
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -S xbmc-cubox-git xf86-video-dove xorg-xinit')
To run
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'xinit /usr/bin/xbmc')

Hi pepedog,

Thanks but that does not work. I removed mesa and libcdio is not installed. When I launch:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'pacman -S xbmc-cubox-git') I get dependency errors because I assume dependencies of xbmc demand to install both mesa and marvell-libgfx.

pacman just won't let me install xbmc. I thought I'd install mesa and overwrite the conflicting library with marvell's but I can't force it either.

Or maybe libcdio demands mesa and thus I should not update the package.... I probably did then and this would be why I can't install it. I'm right ain't I?

----

Finally, I checked this out and it's not that either. The dependencies are broken for XBMC.

I know, and an upgrade will bust things (mesa)

Allright then..... I guess I don't have much choice but to wait for a fix.
Really wanted to see this new cube in action (got the 2GB version).
