Plex now provides official packages. So, this project is considered EOL by me.
This project can be used to generate a hacky, non-standard compliant Debian package for the armhf and arm64 architecture. It works surprisingly well and fetches the binaries of some NAS builds from the Plex Inc. server.
mkdir ../1.8.4-installer; git archive master | tar -x -C ../1.8.4-installer/
cd ..; fakeroot dpkg-deb --build 1.8.4-installer ./
Just adapt DEBIAN/postinst
to your needs: download the NAS package from plex.tv, generate the SHA256 hash with sha256sum <file>
, replace the appropriate URL and HASH in DEBIAN/postinst
with the new values. Then change the version in DEBIAN/control
and see the above section for the package creation procedure.
