Tvheadend

It's an issue with Bintray, basically they don't want us uploading/downloading staticlibs during the build. A solution is being worked on.

I also have problems with the repo (on http://apt.tvheadend.org/stable; this should be Doozer but maybe it's going to the same bintray-repo).

Yea, same here using Doozer. Never could get dl.bitray.com to work. I just setup a fresh install on Tues - glad I got it done before today!

Indeed I had also tried to switch to Doozer as alternative last night but got same errors there as well. What to do? I guess only other alternative is to:
1: I want to have my system up to date so disable tvheadend sources in apt sources and update/upgrade systems (might this brake tvheadend??No it doesn't)
2: build tvheadend from source https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend.git
3: wait
4: other suggestions?

Mine is working so I'm just going to give them a chance to work out a solution.

I got the same error than Nero Rome...
Err:10 https://apt.tvheadend.org/stable bionic Release

Any news?

nope, there is always building from source

Easy to say ;o) i have a bionic 64 and it's not easy to know exactly what files to use for building like "/stable bionic Release"

not sure I understand what you mean but maybe this will help you along
if you follow the links from download, you will end up with latest stable release source link:

https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend/releases/tag/v4.2.4

get tar or zip file

then check first here:
https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/Building

as probably you will need to install most packages mentioned there first

build is described here:
https://github.com/tvheadend/tvheadend

follow those steps, configure or make might through errors, inspect errors to see what you are missing and install then you should be good to go

Thank you mate,....i was not sure , there are some many files lol, when you select apt repo it's all automatic ;o) you can't download bad files...

Due to problems with the repo at apt.tvheadend.org, I've moved to dl.bintray.com.

$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tvheadend.list 
# deb http://apt.tvheadend.org/stable bionic main
$
$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
#deb cdrom:[Linux Mint 19 _Tara_ - Release amd64 20180717]/ bionic contrib main non-free
deb https://dl.bintray.com/tvheadend/ubuntu stable main

It was okay for a couple of days but since a few days I've problems again:

It's quite annoying if an official repo is not working.

IMHO it's not the final solution for a broken repo that everyone has to build the software itself.
