XBMC Server

Postby wolfpack » Tue Feb 18, 2014 2:41 am

Hello,
Just got my archlinux installed on the TonidoPlug2 and it is running great.
I'm trying install the XBMC media sever on there and have issues with the installation.

Here are the instructions for installing XBMC using pacman:

As stable xbmc releases are already available through the community repository, please make sure you have it enabled in your /etc/pacman.conf. After that it's as simple as using pacman to install xbmc and all of its dependencies:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '# pacman -Syu
# pacman -S xbmc')
You should now be able to run XBMC by using the application shortcut in your menu or by simply by running xbmc from a terminal.

I have updated all the packman repository's as per the wiki$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', ' pacman -Syyu') , but I'm still getting this error:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[root@daf ~]# pacman -S xbmc
error: target not found: xbmc')

Here are the contents of my packman.conf file, from what I can tell community is enabled:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '# The testing repositories are disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the
# repo name header and Include lines. You can add preferred servers immediately
# after the header, and they will be used before the default mirrors.

[core]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist')

Does anyone have any insight into why this package can not be found with pacman?

xbmc is not a server but rather a client. Though I suppose it can act as a server. Anyway, you can install it on something without a screen. If you are looking for a dlna server try minidlna.
