Updating

Nightly builds
Installing from the command line
- Change history: trac timeline or commit history
NOTE: You MUST install the stable version before you can install a nightly build. You only need to install the stable version once and you don't need to uninstall previous versions to upgrade (or downgrade) XBMC.
- Open http://mirrors.xbmc.org/nightlies/darwin/ios/ in a web browser and copy the url of the most recent file in that listing.
- EXAMPLE:
http://mirrors.xbmc.org/nightlies/darwin/ios/xbmc-20111202-6729214-master-ios.deb
- EXAMPLE:
- Open up your terminal/ssh application and enter the following commands:
ssh [email protected]
- EXAMPLE:
ssh [email protected]
- EXAMPLE:
- You will be asked for a password: default password is alpine
- Continue to enter the following commands:
rm -f xbmc*.deb
curl -O -L URL-FROM-STEP-1-HERE
- EXAMPLE:
curl -O -L http://mirrors.xbmc.org/nightlies/darwin/ios/xbmc-20111202-6729214-master-ios.deb
- EXAMPLE:
dpkg -i xbmc*.deb
rm xbmc*.deb
And you're done! You should now have the latest nightly build of XBMC for iOS. See here to verify your XBMC version.

Uninstalling
Uninstalling just XBMC
You're all done. XBMC will now be uninstalled from your iDevice. If you want you can also uninstall XBMC-IconPack using the same method.
Removing settings
XBMC will uninstall from your iDevice but will leave certain things (databases and everything in your userdata folder) behind to make it easier if you wanted to reinstall. To delete those:
- From the terminal, run
rm -Rf /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/
- Or
- From iFile
Delete /private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/
