TVHeadend unstable does not update

Added by Ralf Göldner about 7 years ago

Greetings Folks!

Does anybody else has the problem that TVHeadend 4.3 unstable is stuck on an aspecific version?
I'm not able to update via apt-get

Here is my output:
apt-get install tvheadend
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig
Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut.
Statusinformationen werden eingelesen.... Fertig
tvheadend ist schon die neueste Version.
0 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 0 nicht aktualisiert.

Output translated:
apt-get install tvheadend
Read package lists ... Done
Dependency tree is built.
Status information is read in .... Done
tvheadend is already the latest version.
0 updated, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not updated.

My setup:
  • Debian 8 64bit
  • latest updates via "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade"
  • installed Tvheadend 4.3-228~g4fc1a6c-dirty
  • content of: /etc/apt/sources.list -> "deb https://dl.bintray.com/tvheadend/deb jessie unstable"
What i did alsready to solve this:
  • apt-get clean
  • removed and readded line in sources.list
  • system reboot ;-)

Any ideas and suggestions are very welcome :-)
Thanks in advance for your ideas!

apt remove current dirty version (don't forget the dbg package), then try installing from the repo.

Do not purge it, just remove, else you'll lose your configuration.

OK - this was a perfect hint!
TVHeadend has been removed, reinstalled and config was kept working! yay

Thank you very much! :D

New installation on xenial also doesn't work, see http://tvheadend.org/issues/4547#note-7
