| qwebirc90444 | how do i get mythbuntu-control-centre to work with linux mint rebecca. the repositories don't work. i read about mint.map. | 18:11 |
|---|---|---|
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: what do you mean the repositories don't work? | 18:12 |
| qwebirc90444 | hi there. how are you. the repositories button in the mythbuntu-control-centre doesn't work. i can't select 0.27 from the dropdown | 18:13 |
| qwebirc90444 | i can get it to work if i edit the codename to trusty in the lsb-release file | 18:15 |
| tgm4883 | Sec | 18:15 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: hmm, you are correct, something not working right. It's not generating the map correctly for rebecca | 18:19 |
| tgm4883 | I'm assuming because rebecca and qiana are both based off trusty | 18:19 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: I'm in a meeting right now, I'll see if I can fix that a bit later today. | 18:19 |
| qwebirc90444 | ok thanks. can you email me when you have chance | 18:20 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: I could give you a fix for it now | 18:21 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: look in ~/.mythbuntu/repos.db | 18:22 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: it should look like http://download.mythbuntu.org/repos/repos.db | 18:23 |
| tgm4883 | add to the bottom | 18:23 |
| tgm4883 | rebecca 0.27 | 18:23 |
| tgm4883 | that should be a tab between them | 18:24 |
| qwebirc90444 | i get Exception in captureState of plugin Repositories when open muthbuntu-control-centre now | 18:27 |
| tgm4883 | weird | 18:31 |
| tgm4883 | let me look at the code now | 18:33 |
| qwebirc90444 | i got this error when i first install mint then the mythbuntu-control-centre | 18:33 |
| qwebirc90444 | then i edited the lsb-release file and install everything i wanted and when i rebooted the error went away but the repositories were not working | 18:35 |
| qwebirc90444 | the reboot put the lsb-release file back to the original one before i edited it | 18:38 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: you are just trying to add the repository? | 18:43 |
| qwebirc90444 | i was | 18:45 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: so you have it added now? | 18:45 |
| tgm4883 | I'll still fix it, just trying to figure out how to help you now | 18:46 |
| qwebirc90444 | i keep getting the error | 18:46 |
| tgm4883 | you can blow away that repos.db file | 18:47 |
| tgm4883 | it's only used to get it setup initally, once the repo is active you just do updates as normal | 18:48 |
| qwebirc90444 | i am currently testing at the moment before i change my windows media centre and have been installing it a few times and been getting this error | 18:49 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: if you start mythbuntu-control-centre from the command line it will give you a better error | 18:50 |
| qwebirc90444 | how do i do that :) | 18:51 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: just open a terminal and type mythbuntu-control-centre | 18:52 |
| tgm4883 | yea it definitely breaks because of both them being trusty | 18:55 |
| qwebirc90444 | the only reason for mint is its my favourite and similar to windows. if this can be fixed then that would be brilliant. :) | 18:56 |
| qwebirc90444 | and i like the mythbuntu control centre because it makes installing mythtv really easy. being a windows user i am used to gui | 18:57 |
| tgm4883 | yea I'm going to fix it. I just have to figure out how | 18:58 |
| qwebirc90444 | cool thanks. at the moment i aint using it as i am still testing. how can i find out when you have fixed it | 19:01 |
| qwebirc90444 | i have to go now. thanks for all your help and loom forward to the fix | 19:15 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: I think I just fixed it | 19:15 |
| qwebirc90444 | what do you want me to do | 19:15 |
| tgm4883 | yea I'm pretty sure it's fixed | 19:16 |
| tgm4883 | I'll need to push the code up and get the repos.db rebuild | 19:16 |
| tgm4883 | did you delete that repos.db file? | 19:16 |
| qwebirc90444 | no | 19:16 |
| tgm4883 | go ahead and delete it | 19:16 |
| qwebirc90444 | i have delete it | 19:17 |
| tgm4883 | ok, does mythbuntu-control-centre start now? | 19:20 |
| qwebirc90444 | it starts with no errors but the repositories part doesnt have a dropdown selection for anything. usually can select 0.27 or 0.28 | 19:23 |
| tgm4883 | qwebirc90444: ok, so I need to push this up and regenerate the repos.db. I expect that to be done in the next hour or so | 19:24 |
| tgm4883 | once that is done, you should be able to hit the "refresh" button on that repos tab and it will download the new repos.db | 19:25 |
| tgm4883 | I'm still in this meeting and I can't push up the change right now | 19:25 |
| qwebirc90444 | ok cool thanks. will test either later today or tomorrow | 19:26 |
| qwebirc90444 | do you want me to let you know | 19:26 |
| tgm4883 | sur | 19:26 |
| tgm4883 | sure | 19:26 |
| qwebirc90444 | ok will reply on here | 19:26 |
| qwebirc90444 | thanks by | 19:28 |
