Installing XBMC on Fedora 12
XBMC by default has no rpm's, and compiling doesnt work due to some error in the python library. however, someone was kind enough to compile working rpm's out of the SVN branch, making XBMC a nice piece of quality software to add to your HDA expirience.
Installing the required repository's
First, we have to create 2 files:
- /etc/yum.repos.d/spotnet.repo
the contents of this file should be:
[spotnet]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - SpotNet
baseurl=http://fedora.spot.net.id/yum/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/
gpgcheck=0
- /etc/yum.repos.d/atrpms.repo
the contents of this file should be:
[atrpms]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - ATrpms
baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/f$releasever-$basearch/atrpms/stable
gpgkey=http://ATrpms.net/RPM-GPG-KEY.atrpms
gpgcheck=1
- run yum update to have yum update its packages lists.
Installing XBMC
To install XBMC we open up a terminal, su to root and execute the following command: yum install xbmc xbmc-skin-*
This should install xbmc, its required dependencies, and all the skins currently available in the main package! once you're done, XBMC is located inside the GNOME Menu, and you can start adding files to your library
