Trying to update using "/usr/pluto/bin/getxmls"
« on: June 30, 2010, 06:40:05 pm »
ok so i go to web admin and try to run a update and a page comes up with  " /usr/pluto/bin/getxmls" in it and sets there so i ssh to the core and type  sudo /usr/pluto/bin/getxmls
and i get "see below" if im doing it wrong please let me know but it just seem like i get errors, what is the right way to update LinuxMCE, yeah i know sudo apt-get update & upgrade but i tried that before and had to reinstall.
or should i download the latest snapshot every so often to get up to date

simon@dcerouter:~$ sudo /usr/pluto/bin/getxmls

getxmls is no longer actively used. It was originally used to find and aggregate sources for the Add Software page.

Don't worry about it. If you want to see the code for it, it's in src/Add_Software, it consists of a google scraper, looking for a specific search phrase, scraping the results, and loading each page, looking for a passage of a specific XML format, pointing to a set of packages, and their repository sources.
