Your XBian repos should usually be managed properly with the xbian-config update tool, but you may occasionally need to check, verify or change them manually in ”/etc/apt/sources.list” and ”/etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list” , particularly if moving to staging or devel.

If your running latest Debian Stretch, the file ”/etc/apt/sources.list” should only contain below:

deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ stretch main non-free

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian stretch main non-free

Stable is the currently supported stable build of XBian, although at this writing it is still considered a release candidate. To run stable (which you are running by default on first install) your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list file should look like below.

Raspberry Pi 1, Raspberry Pi Zero and Raspberry Pi Zero W:

deb http://apt.xbian.org/      stable  main rpi-stretch    rpi-stretch    armv6l-stretch
### deb http://apt.xbian.org/  staging main rpi-stretch    rpi-stretch    armv6l-stretch
### deb http://apt.xbian.org/  devel   main rpi-stretch    rpi-stretch    armv6l-stretch

Raspberry Pi 2 and Raspberry Pi 3:

deb http://apt.xbian.org/      stable  main rpi2-stretch    rpi2-stretch    armv7l-stretch
### deb http://apt.xbian.org/  staging main rpi2-stretch    rpi2-stretch    armv7l-stretch

Cubox-i and Hummingboard:

### deb http://apt.xbian.org/  devel   main imx6-stretch    imx6-stretch    armv7l-stretch

Staging is the build that contains near-stable packages which are close to being moved into stable. To switch to using staging, your ”/etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list” file should look like below (note you should run sudo apt-get clean and sudo apt-get update after changing your sources list).

Raspberry Pi 1, Raspberry Pi Zero and Raspberry Pi Zero W:

Devel is the build used for testing and debugging new packages; you should have no expectation of stability if using this build (however it often may work just fine). You should only use this build if you plan to assist the developers with debugging for future enhancements (or are just very brave). Note you must have the staging repo added as well if you want to run devel. To switch to using devel, your ”/etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list” file should look like below.
