Installing on Ubuntu 14.10

David Åman

Hi,
I'm trying to install TVHEADEND on Ubuntu 14.10 like this..
sudo apt install curl
curl http://apt.tvheadend.org/repo.gpg.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-add-repository http://apt.tvheadend.org/stable
sudo apt update
sudo apt install tvheadend
When running the sudo apt update I recive...
**_W: Failed to fetch http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable/dists/utopic/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 83.137.145.55 80]

W: Failed to fetch http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable/dists/utopic/main/binary-i386/Packages Not Found [IP: 83.137.145.55 80]

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead._**
What to do?

There isn't a Utopic build. Several suggestions:

1. Hope someone with control over the build system sees this post and fixes it
2. Pop over to #hts on Freenode and ask there
3. Edit your entries in /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d and point to the trusty builds instead
4. Download the trusty deb from the repo: http://apt.tvheadend.org/unstable/pool/main/t/tvheadend/

5. Build a .deb yourself from source and use dpkg to install it

Take your pick - (3) and (4) should work, (5) definitely will, while (1) and (2) will get you the best but perhaps the slowest result.

I did step 3. That did the trick! Thanks! :)
