OSMC's December update is here - OSMC

java works on my system fine after the update, I’d installed it before using a command to add some directory I forget now but I’m sure you know what I mean.

The issue with the Java install in the My OSMC add-on app-store is that currently it will fail unless you first create the folder `/usr/share/man/man1` before install. As I understand it the newest disk images have that folder created but existing installs, at this very moment, would need it manually added. I talked with Sam about it last night and he said he would try to figure out a solution for existing installs.

EDIT: This should now be resolved and new installs from the app store should work as expected.

If someone had already installed it from the app store and got the failure they would need to access the terminal and run…

sudo mkdir -p /usr/share/man/man1
sudo apt-get -f install

which should fix them up. Running the following should come back after that without errors…

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

This update wouldn’t be expected to impact if someone had previously installed Java.

Still need to run sudo java -jar JDownloader.jar after every restart, sorry for offtopic but anyone point me in the right direction on that would be much appreciated as.

is the 64bit userland on the horizon?

Yes, but there is no date set at this moment. When it comes it will be in the form of a new install and not an update though.
