hey guys first off, terrific work with everything I found out about XBMC only like 4 months ago, I've been really into it ever since. Anyway I am trying to make my own repository
I'm clearly a very very novice coder if you can even call it that, I made (copiied) some simple add ons to directly launch android applications, thing is I have friends/family who
would also benefit from those and the repository distribution obviously makes life easier. I am almost positive I have the repo setup correctly on google code. at first my .zip would install but now it
says install failed incorrect add-on structure (this is in ace skin) in confluence it says just failed. I am not sure what I changed if anything, when it did install the repo was empty.
I'm sure I missed a < or a " somewhere or something stupid but I've racked my head for over a week and just spent 2 hours digging through wiki and forums I can't figure it out.
Thanks in advance, btw anyone who wants some android launcher apps akin to the Nuska ones, feel free to use my repo
I am using winrar to zip, I made sure it was set to normal compression, made a fresh zip each time and ran my xml generators and did svn commit like wiki said. I just can't figure it out
the addons install hit/miss which is odd considering I only changed a few things in each one and used same file. Thats what leads me to think maybe it is winrar?
