Unable to install tvheadend on RPi2
Added by Flo Lusch over 8 years ago
Hey there,
I'm trying to install tvheadend on my RPi 2.
1st command works fine:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 379CE192D401AB61
2nd command fails:
sudo apt-add-repository "http://dl.bintray.com/tvheadend/deb stable"
#Traceback (most recent call last):

aptsources.distro.NoDistroTemplateException: Error: could not find a distribution template for Raspbian/jessie
What am I doing wrong?

Linux raspberrypi 4.1.18-v7+ #846 SMP Thu Feb 25 14:22:53 GMT 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux
Regards,

Hi Stan,
meahwhile, I figured out how to install.
Look at this post:
https://tvheadend.org/boards/5/topics/14829
There you'll find a link to https://nihil.selfhost.eu/tvheadend/
You can download a nightly deb-package and install it on your RPi2.
Regards,
Flo
