Re: [SOLVED] Can't install stable xbmc
there isn't any error message. when running pacman -S xbmc I get this output tho:

Re: [SOLVED] Can't install stable xbmc
Since the complete path worked, it's probably because you didn't give your $PATH a chance to update. xbmc is installed to /opt, which is not in Arch's default $PATH. The shortened "xbmc" command will only work after relogging or running /etc/profile.d/xbmc.sh manually.
Now maybe its just me but the total download size doesn't look right. but maybe just me.
Download size is 0 because you've already downloaded it from a previous xbmc installation, so it pulls the package from /var/cache/pacman/pkg.
