[13:58] <qwebirc22778> Dear all, is there a way to change the MythTV updates repo to a newer version (0.26->0.27) without using MythTV command center? My problem is that command center always changes lirc settings, and I'd rather not mess my remote if possible. I'm running Mythbuntu 12.04.03.
[14:51] <superm1> qwebirc22778: yes you can do it by command line if yo uwant too
[14:51] <superm1> go into /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[14:52] <superm1> rename mythbuntu-0.26.list to mythbuntu-0.27.list
[14:52] <superm1> and then edit the file and change all instances from 0.26 to 0.27
[14:53] <qwebirc22778> superm1: Thanks for your reply! However, there's no file called mythbuntu-0.26.list in my /etc/apt/sources.list.d.
[14:54] <superm1> qwebirc22778: what's there?  it's possible we've changed it around a little bit since i'm remembering how we did it, it might just be mythbuntu.list now
[15:02] <qwebirc22778> superm1: canonical.commercial.list, jockey.list, medibuntu.list, mozillateam-firefox-stable-lucid.list,opera.list, ubuntu-wine-ppa-precise.list. Nothing matches grep 26 *.
[15:02] <superm1> qwebirc22778: is it in /etc/apt/sources.list then?
[15:03] <superm1> or do you not have a PPA installed in the first place perhaps and you're just running stock 0.25.2 from mythbuntu 12.04.3
[15:04] <tgm4883> superm1, it's not. IIRC, we use apt-add-repository to add it so it's named after the PPA I think
[15:05] <superm1> but did add-apt-repository's behavior change at some point?
[15:05] <tgm4883> not that I know of
[15:05] <superm1> i would expect that it should have been in /etc/apt/sources.list.d with all his other stuff
[15:05] <tgm4883> superm1, yes, it will be in there
[15:05] <tgm4883> it just won't be named mythbuntu.list
[15:05] <superm1> mythbuntu-0.26.list is what it should be right?
[15:05] <tgm4883> something like that
[15:06] <tgm4883> He can just do 'apt-add-repository ppa:mythbuntu/0.27'
[15:06] <tgm4883> that would add 0.27
[15:06] <qwebirc22778> superm1: I just checked that synaptic shows I'm running .26, which is also what control center tells me.
[15:07] <superm1> yeah but he should make sure he takes off the 0.26 repository wherever it's listed
[15:07] <qwebirc22778> Last time I upgraded, I did it using command center and it messed my remote.
[15:08] <tgm4883> qwebirc22778, can you pastebin the output of 'grep ^ /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*'
[15:11] <qwebirc22778> tgm4883: Whoops, I've been using at the wrong terminal... If I go to /etc/apt/sources.list.d on my mythbuntu server, I do seemythbuntu-0_26-precise.list.
[15:12] <superm1> oh good
[15:12] <superm1> so change all the 26's to 27's and rename the file and you should be set
[15:12] <qwebirc22778> superm1: Sorry for my mistake...
[15:13] <qwebirc22778> Ok, I can see the PPA entries. I'll give it a try and make the changes.
[15:18] <qwebirc22778> I made the changes to mythbuntu-0_26-precise.list and synaptic shows that I can update packages to 0.27. Thank you so much, superm1 and tgm4883.
[15:18] <superm1> sure thing
