[18:11] <qwebirc90444> how do i get mythbuntu-control-centre to work with linux mint rebecca. the repositories don't work. i read about mint.map.
[18:12] <tgm4883> qwebirc90444: what do you mean the repositories don't work?
[18:13] <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
[18:15] <qwebirc90444> i can get it to work if i edit the codename to trusty in the lsb-release file
[18:15] <tgm4883> Sec
[18:19] <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.
[18:20] <qwebirc90444> ok thanks. can you email me when you have chance
[18:21] <tgm4883> qwebirc90444: I could give you a fix for it now
[18:22] <tgm4883> qwebirc90444: look in ~/.mythbuntu/repos.db
[18:23] <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
[18:24] <tgm4883> that should be a tab between them
[18:27] <qwebirc90444> i get Exception in captureState of plugin Repositories when open muthbuntu-control-centre now
[18:31] <tgm4883> weird
[18:33] <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
[18:35] <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
[18:38] <qwebirc90444> the reboot put the lsb-release file back to the original one before i edited it
[18:43] <tgm4883> qwebirc90444: you are just trying to add the repository?
[18:45] <qwebirc90444> i was
[18:45] <tgm4883> qwebirc90444: so you have it added now?
[18:46] <tgm4883> I'll still fix it, just trying to figure out how to help you now
[18:46] <qwebirc90444> i keep getting the error
[18:47] <tgm4883> you can blow away that repos.db file
[18:48] <tgm4883> it's only used to get it setup initally, once the repo is active you just do updates as normal
[18:49] <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
[18:50] <tgm4883> qwebirc90444: if you start mythbuntu-control-centre from the command line it will give you a better error
[18:51] <qwebirc90444> how do i do that :)
[18:52] <tgm4883> qwebirc90444: just open a terminal and type mythbuntu-control-centre
[18:55] <tgm4883> yea it definitely breaks because of both them being trusty
[18:56] <qwebirc90444> the only reason for mint is its my favourite and similar to windows. if this can be fixed then that would be brilliant. :)
[18:57] <qwebirc90444> and i like the mythbuntu control centre because it makes installing mythtv really easy. being a windows user i am used to gui
[18:58] <tgm4883> yea I'm going to fix it. I just have to figure out how
[19:01] <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
[19:15] <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
[19:16] <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
[19:17] <qwebirc90444> i have delete it
[19:20] <tgm4883> ok, does mythbuntu-control-centre start now?
[19:23] <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
[19:24] <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
[19:25] <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
[19:26] <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
[19:28] <qwebirc90444> thanks by
