Ubuntu 24.04 Suppport

[TheDreadPirate]

I will have to get back to you tomorrow then after I've installed Noble on my server. Your other option is to use docker.

I just had to install the web, server, and ffmpeg packages separately instead of using the metapackage

Code:

sudo apt install jellyfin-ffmpeg6
sudo apt install jellyfin-server

Installing jellyfin-server will automatically pull in web.

Thanks! I did get it installed, but unfortunately couldn't say how as I was hammering at it, and failed to be methodical and take good notes.

I will be reinstalling Xubuntu 24.10 on a new SSD in the next few days, and will try to take notes as I go in case of any problems.

Thanks for the help, and thanks to all at Jellyfin!

Ok, I just did a fresh Xubuntu 24.04 install. Installed Jellyfin doing the following:

sudo apt install curl

curl https://repo.jellyfin.org/install-debuntu.sh | sudo bash

"E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."
"ERROR: Failed to install Jellyfin. Use https://jellyfin.org/contact to find us for troubleshooting."

sudo apt install jellyfin-ffmpeg6
sudo apt install jellyfin-server

If I tried to do "sudo apt install jellyfin-ffmpeg6" straight off, it can't install it. Not 100% sure what I am doing, just bashing keys till things work!

What is the output of "sudo apt update"? Copy and paste the output. It sounds like something is broken.

Huh. Weird. Installing jellyfin-ffmpeg6 and server separate worked for me a several other people.

What is the exact output of "sudo apt install jellyfin-ffmpeg6"? That version was explicitly updated to work with Noble.

Sorry, I didn't take a note of that. It could have been the repository wasn't there on a new install of Xubuntu.

While Jellyfin runs fine on 24.04 I'm getting the following new message after an "apt update":

N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'https://repo.jellyfin.org/ubuntu noble InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386'
N: Missing Signed-By in the sources.list(5) entry for 'https://repo.jellyfin.org/ubuntu'

While before 24. you could add [arch=amd64] the new sources file looks different, so I see no possibility adding this:

cat jellyfin.sources

Types: deb
URIs: https://repo.jellyfin.org/ubuntu
Suites: noble
Components: main

Any idea how to fix this?

[TheDreadPirate]

My jellyfin source file has "Architectures: amd64" in it already.

If you are not specifying an architecture, wouldn't it use the system's architecture? What hardware are you running on?
