[XBMC] Need to hack

Airon90 · 2014-06-25 10:42:45

Hi,
There is a message for you from XBMC dev:

http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?ti … pid1736094

Huh? for who? What?

Airon, if there is something discussionworthy here please clarrify what this thread is supposed to be about. If you'd just like to bring something to the attention of an arch dev/packager, please contact them directly ... and provide more information than this.

I'll move this to TGN as a temporary layover (edit: returned to Apps & DEs)

I'll move this to TGN as a temporary layover on the way to the Bin. If you can clarify what this is about and there is a discussion to be had, I'll move it back to the Apps & DEs forum. If this isn't for discussion, it will later be binned.

Sincerely I don't know what to do: I reported a help request in the forum of XBMC and they told that xbmc package isn't the officially supported so I reported it to you, in order to know what to do. If I had to report this thing elsewhere, please tell me what to do and sorry to open a useless thread.

It's certainly not be a useless topic. If you are seeking a solution to a problem in archlinux, then posting here is certainly the right approach. But your post just seemed odd. It read like "You've got mail". It wasn't clear if you just wanted to forward a link to a specific dev/packager, or if you wanted help solving a problem.

I've just look into the link you posted. This does seem to be an appropriate topic for a forum post, but I'd make a few suggestions:
1) Describe the original problem and mention that you've also sought help elsewhere (and provide the link).
2) Summarize the info the other forum gave you - include the link to the code they provided as it may be relevant.
3) Provide the error messages you receive in your post - if they are short (~dozen lines or less) put them in code tags, if much longer, put them on pastebin-like site and link to them.

Sorry if I seemed like I was just shutting down your request for help - but as it was initially presented, it was not likely to get any help.

I'll move this thread back to where it was - please do your best to fulfill the three requests above.

EDIT: is this the same issue: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 0#p1429940 I'm not an XBMC user, so I can't really tell.
