cannot install release on Ubuntu 14.04 32bit

Added by Tonda - almost 9 years ago

Hi,

I cannot install tvheadend on Ubuntu 14.04 32bit - apt-get says E: Unable to locate package tvheadend

Repo does not contain deb packages for Trusty (and others)

http://apt.tvheadend.org/release/pool/main/t/tvheadend/

Thanks.

Yes, I was following that wiki page, according to it Trusty (14.04) - i386 should be supported

I did:

curl http://apt.tvheadend.org/repo.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-add-repository http://apt.tvheadend.org/release
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tvheadend

And the result is:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package tvheadend

When looking into the repo (http://apt.tvheadend.org/release/pool/main/t/tvheadend/) I see DEBs only for Debian Jessie and Ubuntu Vivid.

Bintray link contains only AMD64 version.

stable packages are in place but I would prefer release.

There was a recent problem with 32-bit builds, but I thought that was maser only, not stable... it could be a brain fade or finger problem when setting up the repo. I'll see if I can ping Adam about it.

In the meantime, you have some DIY 32-bit Trusty builds here: https://tvheadend.org/boards/5/topics/18724. Untested, but I'd happily install them and expect them to work, if that's any vote of confidence...

For what it's worth... I can't comment (yet) on why the builds aren't in the "release" PPA. However, I can offer this...

The "stable" PPA can really be thought of as 'testing'; it's a nightly build of the release version plus any new commits for that point release. Once stability has been confirmed, the "stable" version then becomes the new "release" version.

What that means here is that the release version is 4.0.8 (which is missing); by contrast, the stable version is 4.0.8-3, which means it's three commits ahead of 4.0.8 at the moment. If you wish, you can thus install the stable release instead, as that's kind of a pre-release for 4.0.9. You can see the differences between the two builds (i.e. what those three [as of now] commits are) here:

https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend/compare/v4.0.8...release/4.0

And yes, there's an i386 Trusty .deb in that PPA:
