Note regarding repo

h1. Official Apt Repository

The official Apt repository has now been moved to https://bintray.com/tvheadend
4 1 Adam Sutton

Unfortunately the migration required a change to the repository structure that makes it's layout incompatible with the existing http://apt.tvheadend.org repository, therefore we have not tried to map the old URLs to the new repository. Instead the old repository will continue to exist for the foreseeable future (including updates), however we'd prefer if people could migrate to the bintray version.

h2. Build type
12 1 Adam Sutton
13 28 Adam Sutton
As before there are 3 standard build types (though I've added a 4th to keep old users happy):
14
15
* release  - This will contain the latest official / stable release.
16
* stable   - This will contain a nightly build from the latest release branch. It will pick up fixes in prep. for the next release.
17
* unstable - This will contain a nightly build from the development branch (master). It will contain the bleeding edge, but could be potentially unstable.
18
* obsolete - This contains a build of the last release from the 3.4 branch, it will receive no further updates.

# It's the intention to include Sid as well, unfortunately there have been some hiccups getting this working.
34
# Raspbian (armhf) builds are done manually, but due to lack of time the release build provided by this repository is lagging behind. An unofficial bintray repository kindly provided by Jonathan Thomson is available "here":https://tvheadend.org/boards/5/topics/21528?r=23476.

74 28 Adam Sutton
* master   - This will contain *nightly* builds from the master branch. This is equivalent to "unstable" in the official repo.
75
* unstable - This will contain *weekly* builds from the master branch. This has no equivalent in the official repo.
76
* testing  - This will contain *nightly* builds from the release/4.x branch. This is equivalent to "stable" in the official repo.
77

*So which repository do I use?*
131 28 Adam Sutton
It's preferred that you use the official repository as this is more likely to received continued support. And even if the build system should break and [[Adam]] isn't available dreamcat and perexg now know how to feed the bintray repo by alternative means.

*Stable, unstable/master, testing or release?*
134 28 Adam Sutton
* If you want the latest and greatest features and don't mind bugs or crashes choose the unstable builds. It's not recommended this be used for production systems.
135
* If you want to test the latest changes (and don't mind a few minor bugs) that'll shortly be included in the next stable release, use the stable builds.
136
* If you just want the least amount of hassle (and bugs) choose the release builds.
