4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible

Added by Writz Cat over 9 years ago

Hello,

im running on my server OMV and wanted to install the latest Tvheadend.

But through http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable i can only install version 3.9.xx

Have i done something wrong ? or is the only way to get latest Tvheadend in building it from github ?

Same here, anybody got tips how to update to 4.1?

Will there be builds available in the near future for ubunty 14.04 or is it advised to compile myself if I would like to update?

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by Prof Yaffle over 9 years ago

Can you try it and see, please?

The idea is that - although the builds are labelled 'trusty' - they will install on any deb-based (certainly, any Ubuntu) distro. The distro name only really gets used when adding the PPA and then looking up what's available, but this PPA is using 'master', 'unstable', 'testing', etc. instead of the distro name.

Summary: if you add the relevant PPA then you should get the right package, whether it's called 'trusty', 'utopic', 'angela merkel' or anything else.

If you want to test, add the PPA and then use apt-cache policy tvheadend, see what that reports as a candidate.

Thanks for reporting it.

This is an issue with bintray... we had fixed that before going live yesterday. Yet clearly clearly the fix they suggested hasn't held up.

The error message you are seeing relates to the metadata signing of these packages. It should happen when bintray is importing the packages within it's own environment. Their systems are supposed to be re-signing them automatically.

We have made bintray aware of the issue, who have stated they will notify us once the problem is fixed. In the meantime I try to see if anything else can be done to work around the problem.

While the problem exists, we suggest that you:

  • Hit 'y' and ignore the problem.
  • Installation should proceed normally.

On a side note, these 'ubuntu' packages are being built on a 14.04.2 trusty host. They also seem to be working just the same on newer versions of ubuntu too (14.10 and 15.04).

I would also like to suggest that distribution - related issues and requests can be best raised on the issues tracker of the new 'tvheadend-build' github repo:

Right here ---> https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend-build/issues/new

Kind Regards

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by Dreamcat 4 over 9 years ago

OK. Ticket Updated:

  • We will see if the hotfix solves by checking again after tomorrow's scheduled nightly builds.
  • For today, I have already re-triggered the metadata calculation.

You can track further progress on the issues tracker:

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by saen acro over 9 years ago

Packages cannot be authenticated because they are not in
http://dl.bintray.com/tvheadend/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tvheadend/
they are in cloudfront.net, bintray.com just redirect and that's the problem

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by Dreamcat 4 over 9 years ago

We don't believe so... The mismatch is assumed to be related to the package linking feature of bintray. Since it doesn't seem to be happening on the original bintray/dreamcat4/* APT source. If the entire URL is being checked / signed then it's the different username part that's been causing the trouble rather than the underlying cloud storage provider.

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by Dreamcat 4 over 9 years ago

Or to put it another way... the fix it's already worked right now, and the same fix which we performed today is already commited in public SCM for the next nightly builds, right here:

https://github.com/dreamcat4/tvheadend-build/commit/541f97d81f83d7650cf7623abadd5c6c7237c3f9

For anybody still experiencing the issue, doing an 'sudo apt-get update' aught to pick up the change. Then retry 'sudo apt-get install tvheadend. It seems OK at my end.

And we will check it again after tomorrow's rebuild.

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by saen acro over 9 years ago

Why in trusty it update 3.9 to 4.0.4 not to 4.1.xxx .
Only manual update to 4.1.xxx is possible?

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by Dreamcat 4 over 9 years ago

That is correct. Because STABLE branch is versions 4.0, 4.2, 4.4 and 4.6
Only the EVEN numbers.

While 4.1, 4.3, and 4.5 etc
- those ones are the UNSTABLE e.g. of master branch, current development.
So commits that are git-tagged as '4.1' are never to become marked as a 'stable' software.

If you really actually want '4.1.x', then 2 things need to happen:

1) perexg needs to start git-tagging every now and again on master branch. For example at times when the code is not considered to be broken or crashing, and before he screws it up again while adding some brand new feature.

Currently, perexg is not doing this ^^. So those 'unstable' releases are kindda useless right now.

2) Then you would just choose the 'unstable' apt source. Add it to your sources.list. That would pick up the latest '4.1.x' git tag from master branch.

I recommend for time being that just stick to the stable branch, which is 4.0.4 currently.
If you want newer than 'v4.0.4' (which is not released yet). Then you may use 'testing' apt source. Which is the latest nightly commit on the currect 'stable' git branch 'release/4.0'.

It's decided by perexg which fixes or features he cherry-picks to commit back onto the 'release/4.0' git branch. So e.g. if there is a memory leak, he will probably also fix it in the stable branch. That is the last commit of 'testing' apt source nightly build, until he re-releases the stable again to e.g. '4.0.5' git tag.

But let us know if it happens again.

This is from old repo
HTS Tvheadend 4.1.7~g61eeb38~utopic x86
in bintray newest
tvheadend_4.1-161~gf69ebde~trusty only x86_64

it is very uncomfortable to destroy regular distro name structure of deb files

Well it looks like the old builds have already stopped for about 2 weeks now. Last files in 'unstable' APT repo are dated 21st May 2015:

The new "experimental" repo do not work

Ubuntu Linux 14.04.2 x86_64 with HTS Tvheadend 4.1-155~g0f0fcd3

Sorry but I'm confused what is the actual technical problem with it. Because you didn't include any error message whatsoever. Was there one? Can you show here the actual failure, including the cmd you ran which generated the error message?

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by saen acro over 9 years ago

there is nothing new in this repo every new packet is for trusty rest nothing precise have only to verry old versions of compilation

but
Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet will live until January 2016 nothing for it

p.s.
ERRROR is in situation in with users are put in
18 version for trusty
2 for precise
0 for utopic, vivid, squeeze, wheezy and jessie

compile on even days x86
on odd 64 bit

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by Dreamcat 4 over 9 years ago

Ok. So there was not any real error message regarding the distro version problem. Then it has no bug to fix.

  • If you want to complain about no i386 - please use that thread for those comment. Because that is best place to collect user opinion.
  • If you want to complain about these distro that is not working:

2 for precise
0 for utopic, vivid, squeeze, wheezy and jessie

Then please test fist these 'trusty' package, then post the error message you see from the command, including the commands itself where the error came.

All of the packages say: 'trusty' in their name - because they were built on a trusty host system. It does not mean they are not working on the other distro. We apologise for any confusion but it's not anything to prevent the installation. Just try and see. For example - it seems to work on these ones already:

  • utopic 14.10
  • vivid 15.04
  • Linux mint 17.1 ('rebecca' or 'cinnamon')

[EDIT] Other ones (NOT supported):

  • Debian - Several people have asked 'why no new debian pkgs?'. But actually we have not yet had someone to try the trusty package and say why it does not work. It is a useful feedback we need.
  • For ARM support - there is a different forum thread marked for ARM. So please comment there instead if something specific to ARM we collect together those similar comment.

Thank you.

I also tested at runtime (with my existing tvheadend config folder) on 15.04 host - and it worked OK. The tvheadend server would start normally. My tv channels would play correctly in HTSP client. Everything seemed normal.

So you can see: it's not so bad. The distro field - it doesn't matter for tvheadend. (at least for the time being everything is OK, it is no need to worry).

Also:

  • You mentioned about the ARM builds.

Actually there are some few guys making ARM builds of the new version 4.0.x stable. One guy is making a Synology ARM pkg (hopefully to eventually become official on synology), another person is making good package for Arch linux. Which is official in the Arch linux packman pkg repository. Another person is compiling natively for rpi (on an rpi).

It's just that we don't know yet how to make cross-compile builds for ARM. On ubuntu 64-bit Intel host (to make ubuntu ARM .deb).

RE: 4.1.x install from http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable not possible - Added by Anonymous over 9 years ago

It's possible to install new version TVH on Debian? When I try install I have following error:

Depends: libc6 (>= 2.14) but 2.13-38+deb7u1 is to be installed

I'm using stable version of Debian (newest version OpenMediaVault).
