Awesome Donkey:
Looks to me like Raspbian is too out-of-date (is it still based on Wheezy?) for it to work - it can't satisfy the required versions of the dependencies.

mplicit:
I just followed the instructions below. I never had any issues with MC21 & MC22.

Software Preparation:

After rebooting, you should be looking at the Pi's desktop. If your Pi isn't plugged into to an ethernet line, take a minute to configure your wi-fi adapter to get internet access. Once that's done, open a terminal by clicking on the icon that looks like a computer monitor. Enter the following into the terminal:

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

After you enter the line, you'll be prompted whether to install updates to packages; press "y" to confirm. It may take a little while for the packages to download and install. Now enter the following into the terminal


Code:
cd /boot
sudo nano config.txt

This will show you the file config.txt in the text editor nano. You'll see a lot of information in the config file already, scroll down to the bottom of the file using the direction keys on your keyboard and enter the following two lines exactly as shown:


Code:
framebuffer_depth=32
framebuffer_ignore_alpha=1

Then save the file by pressing Ctrl+O, then enter. Then press Ctrl+X to exit, and you should be back at the terminal. Now close the terminal and reboot the pi.

Installing MC:

After the reboot, it's time to install MC:


Code:
wget -q "http://dist.jriver.com/mediacenter@jriver.com.gpg.key" -O- | sudo apt-key add -
sudo wget http://dist.jriver.com/latest/mediacenter/mediacenter23native.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mediacenter23.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mediacenter23

After installation completes, you should see MC in the application menu in the upper left hand corner under "sound and video." Open MC, and you're off! 

Awesome Donkey:
MC23's minimum versions of dependencies required has increased (to what's available in Debian Jessie and above).

The dependencies available (according to the log you posted above) are simply too old.

Have you tried the version of Raspbian based on Debian Stretch? It *should* work there (I can't test as I don't own any ARM devices or Raspberry Pis).

mplicit:
Can I upgrade Raspbian do Debian Stretch without having to reinstall Debian Stretch from scratch?
