h1. Official Apt Repository

The official Apt repository has now been moved to https://bintray.com/tvheadend
4 1 Adam Sutton
5 28 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
8 1 Adam Sutton
9 28 Adam Sutton
As before there are 3 standard build types (though I've added a 4th to keep old users happy):
10
11
* release  - This will contain the latest official / stable release.
12
* stable   - This will contain a nightly build from the latest release branch. It will pick up fixes in prep. for the next release.
13
* unstable - This will contain a nightly build from the development branch (master). It will contain the bleeding edge, but could be potentially unstable.
14
* obsolete - This contains a build of the last release from the 3.4 branch, it will receive no further updates.

Notes:

# It's the intention to include Sid as well, unfortunately there have been some hiccups getting this working.
29 44 Mark Clarkstone
# Ubuntu Vivid Vervet & Precise Pangolin are no longer supported (by this repository).
30 40 Mark Clarkstone
# 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.

First install bintray's GPG key:

36 1 Adam Sutton
<pre>
37 28 Adam Sutton
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 379CE192D401AB61

Select which build type you want and add the repository accordingly:
41
42
<pre>
43
echo "deb https://dl.bintray.com/tvheadend/deb DISTRO BUILDTYPE" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
44
</pre>
45

Replace DISTRO with the distribution's code name (as quoted in the _Supported Distro's / Platforms_ list). 
47
Replace BUILDTYPE with the desired build type.

This repository also provides 4 possible components. However they are slightly different to those in the official repository and some of the names have different meanings.
74 1 Adam Sutton
75 28 Adam Sutton
* master   - This will contain *nightly* builds from the master branch. This is equivalent to "unstable" in the official repo.
76
* unstable - This will contain *weekly* builds from the master branch. This has no equivalent in the official repo.
77
* testing  - This will contain *nightly* builds from the release/4.x branch. This is equivalent to "stable" in the official repo.
78
* stable   - This will contain the latest stable release. This is equivalent to "release" in the official repo.

*So which repository do I use?*
132 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?*
135 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.
136
* 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.
137
* If you just want the least amount of hassle (and bugs) choose the release builds.
