How to build the custom Xbian Image

[amanharitsh123]

I have made some changes to the kodi fork https://github.com/amanharitsh123/xbmc . I want to make a custom xbian image using this fork and want to test my changes. How can i do this ? Please Help

emdebian.org supplies multiarch support (incl. cross compiler) for Debian Jessie, but this is not required for Debian Stretch, because Stretch comes with complete multiarch support already included. And, you do not need to add anything as mirror

@mkreisl I badly need to compile kodi-isengard which cant be done using stretch and debian jessie chroot is unable to apt-update from emdebian Is there anything i can do right now ?

I badly need to compile kodi-isengard which cant be done using stretch

Why - error messages?

Did you have sucessfully set up root environment amd64stretch?

And of course, you have to edit file .../xbian-package/xbmc/build/rpi2-cross-isengard/config, like this

...
config_build_env=schroot -c amd64stretch -p --
config_source_branch=treeIsengard
config_source_addr=https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian-sources-xbmc.git
...

[amanharitsh123]

I have done that , now there is a error for no rule to make target 'java-not-found ', needed by 'codegenerator' after compilation goes for 15 mins

Also some doxygen not installed

[mkreisl]

Hmmm, so seems that Isengard can not be build for Debian Stretch. I was trying it also, and my build stopped during configure process (havent looked deeper, does not make sense for me).

So, I'm currently building Isengard for Debian Jessie, that seems to work. But, unfortunately setting up root (amd64jessie) fails (got same Method gave invalid 103 redirect message errors), but I have already fixed that

You can apply the fix locally and try to setup amd64jessie again

^^^ Fix commited https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/commit/12a3f84e6d82bb78f05ed78ec37b7329027ed709 ^^^

Seems to work, but Isengard is not compatible with libcec4 library. Before building, libcec4 has to be removed and libcec3 installed manually in root amd64jessie

sudo -E schroot -c amd64jessie

and inside root, remove all cec packages and then

apt-get install libcec-dev:armhf=3.1.0.1~xbian-1462858855

Yep, that worked :smile:

Which Linux distro are you using ? I am still getting this error Method gave invalid 103 redirect message after sudo -E $xbiangit --arch amd64jessie --action build P.S : I have git pull the repo again , Is there are any other fix that i have to apply locally?

[mkreisl]

Debian 9 VM for testing, fresh setup of amd64jessie root.

You have to remove amd64jessie folder (sudo -E rm -rf $XBIANROOT/build-root-dirs/amd64jessie) and setup root amd64jessie again. Did you do that?

Nope, no other fixes necessary

[amanharitsh123]

Yes , I did that . but still the error with GET ftp.de.debian.org jessie/main/amd64 packages

[amanharitsh123]

The same error if I try to apt-get update in schroot

[mkreisl]

Please show me file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list in schroot

[amanharitsh123]

[mkreisl]

That's the culprit: mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt

Either my fix does not work for you, or you did not applied this fix correctly or you did not set up root again

It must be http://apt.xbian.org

[amanharitsh123]

Well , I have cloned a fresh repo again. Is there any thing else i should do?

[amanharitsh123]

I can edit the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list , may be then i can do a apt-get update

[mkreisl]

I can edit the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list , may be then i can do a apt-get update

Yeah, that would be possible. And after done that, you have to continue by running sudo -E $xbiangit --arch amd64jessie --action other. But if the script does not work correctly, you will fell in the same error again

[amanharitsh123]

Dependency error , libc64:amd64 multiarch support after running sudo -E $xbiangit --arch amd64jessie --action other

[mkreisl]

Hmmm, sorry. There is something absolutely wrong with your installation. Or maybe we're talking about different things

[amanharitsh123]

Well , for the last time . What is the complete installation procedure that worked for u?

[mkreisl]

I'll do it again and post log here

[mkreisl]

I'm going crazy. Yesterday it works flawlessly, today this stupid error is back again.

Have to look what's going on today

[mkreisl]

So, finally it should work after that fix: https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/commit/54bc2cf45bd7220b4a28eff5ca1d74ccbc5763aa

Here is my log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/PXR2sFgYW2/

hth

[amanharitsh123]

Trying :) @mkreisl Thanks a lot , finally the process successfully completed :)

[mkreisl]

Fine, so don't forget to install libcec3 before building Kodi Isengard

[amanharitsh123]

Thanks :) I have done that , build in progress . Lets see what happens next :)

[amanharitsh123]

At the time of compiling rpi-isengard , i had this error https://paste.fedoraproject.org/paste/zZV7Yor~FOYJ87w8EEbykw looks like i need to update automake to 1.15.1

But how to do that :/

[mkreisl]

I don't think so, because build process is building it's own autoconf/automake, see here https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian-package-xbmc/blob/master/hooks.d/pre-configure.d/00-pre-depends#L18

[amanharitsh123]

so , what should i do ?

[amanharitsh123]

@mkreisl Then may be I should replace the automake in the /tools/native with the latest one

[mkreisl]

@mkreisl Then may be I should replace the automake in the /tools/native with the latest one

No, that version must work.

I assume that this issue is caused by another problem. As already told, yesterday I was building Isengard without any issue on my Debian Stretch VM At the moment, I'm building Isengard on my older Debian Jessie VM (I found small (CEC related) issue again, but this has nothing to do with your problem) And at least, I'm setting up build enviromnent on my stone old Ubuntu 14.04 VM, will see how it works there

[amanharitsh123]

@mkreisl Please let me know the results :) Currently i am setting up the debian 9 vm , lets see if i can build on that

[mkreisl]

Sure, I will do :smile: Debian 8 VM --> built ok

[amanharitsh123]

.deb created successfully ?

[mkreisl]

.deb created successfully ?

Yes (Debian 8 VM)

[amanharitsh123]

Can you please provide the logs ?

[mkreisl]

Too late, already removed xbian-package-xbmc folder. Sorry

[mkreisl]

It seems that build on Ubuntu 14.04 fails (auto issue) Running apt-get upgrade to see if that makes any difference

[mkreisl]

Yep, after installing some additional packages (autopoint, openjdk-7-jre-headless, swig, doxygen, g++, fakeroot) build process ( sudo -E $xbiangit --arch rpi2-cross-isengard --action wipe,build) is running in Ubuntu 14.04 VM

[mkreisl]

All testbuilds completed successfully (Debian Stretch, Debian Jessie, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS)

Here you can find my 14.04 build log of sudo -E $xbiangit --arch rpi2-cross-isengard --action wipe,build: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/TFmJXRt6Yp/ and here is my complete 14.04 package list http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Qj785RMCVg/

Have you downgraded the libcec every time?

Sure, I did. It's necessary

Oh, I forgot to post final libcec fix inside of schroot. You have to copy libcec.pc

cp /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libcec.pc  /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/pkgconfig/

[amanharitsh123]

After building i have two deb packages should i install both packages simply using dpkg -i *.deb on my rpi?

No, you need only one, the smaller one. The second holds debug information only

[amanharitsh123]

Xbian image already has kodi Krypton , should I remove that before installing?

[mkreisl]

You already asked that, and I was answering: NO

[amanharitsh123]

Thanks :)

[mkreisl]

Thanks :)

But you have to consider, that you're building your package for Debian Jessie, so you have to install this package on a Debian Jessie XBian installation.

[amanharitsh123]

and where can i find xbian jessie image

[mkreisl]

There is at least one available for download

https://sourceforge.net/projects/xbian/files/release/XBian_Jessie_latest_rpi3.img.gz/download

[amanharitsh123]

Ok , trying to install deb Hope i will not face any dependencies issues :)

[mkreisl]

Hope i will not face any dependencies issues :)

I suppose you'll have to downgrade libcec packages there
