Broken Osmc-installer RPM packages for Fedora / CentOS

Osmc-installer package is still broken, actually i have never seen its working on Fedora / CentOS systems. There are some weird dependencies like libjpeg8 and libpng12-0, and well fedora/centos dont offer those with those names.

Before i give up trying and installed OSMC under Windows, but now i couldnt use Windows so i have to compile that package again from src.rpm and now its seems atleast start well.

I wonder if someone really got it installed from that repo? I can submit working srpm package if someone wants, but unable to test it under OpenSUSE.

Hi

I am trying to fix this, but RPM packaging is not my strong point. I found in CentOS and RHEL that we want:

libtiff; libjpeg-turbo and libpng packages.

Have tried to resolve this for CentOS and RHEL. We are using Open Build Service and you can view our spec file here:

Hi,

It’s missing the following packages:

libjpeg-turbo-devel.686 1.3.1-4.fc21
libtiff.i686 4.0.3-18.fc21
libpng.i686 2:1.6.10-3.fc21

I can test on Fedora 21 if a new RPM is available

Oh f… i forgot to answer here and comment something but now its seems work fine atleast for me. No need anymore compile it myself! Great job guys! :+1:

Problem solved, case closed.

Hi, this problem is still there, at least in my Fedora 22 64bit box.
After executing osmcinstaller i got a white empty window and those errors:

libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile

Hi,

I have the same problem that flashback. Any idea to resolve it ?

Thanks for the answer.

Unfortunately I don’t use Fedora or CentOS, so I’m not sure how to resolve this issue

This problem is still present in Fedora 23 / 64bits.
Same errors. Anybody figured this out?

Note to self: after installing the osmc-installer package in fedora, run it with:

QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1 /usr/share/osmc/qt_host_installer

Since this issue is still there, I think it might be worthwhile adding my 2 cents here.

Based on htpcero’s response, I instead edited the file /usr/share/osmc/osmcinstaller. It’s a shell script. Go to the following line:

cmd="$dir/qt_host_installer"

and change it to look like this:

`cmd="QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1 $dir/qt_host_installer"`

Once done, you can forget about it. Simply use the command “osmcinstaller” on the command line as expected.
