Set up JRiver Media Center 25 in Fedora and CentOS
BryanC:
README:
1. 64-bit only
2. Only Fedora 29 and CentOS 8 and newer are supported.
3. This script will not point major upgrades (i.e. from v24 to v25) to your old library. You should first perform a library backup, install the new major version, and then restore the library backup in the new version.
4. If installing a beta version, the script will prompt you for the beta password.
How to install:
1. Extract install_MC_fedora.zip:
--- Code: ---unzip install_MC_fedora_2.0.zip
--- End code ---
2. You may need to make the script executable:
--- Code: ---chmod +x ./install_MC_fedora.sh
--- End code ---
3A) Install using the repo:
--- Code: ---./install_MC_fedora.sh -i
--- End code ---
If you install using the repo, future version upgrades will be handled by your package manager.
3B) Build and/or install locally:
--- Code: ---./install_MC_fedora.sh [-v|--version] [version] [-b|--build-only] [-i|--install-repo]
To install the latest version automatically:
./install_MC_fedora.sh
To install a specific version:
./install_MC_fedora.sh 25.0.44
To build RPMs on an unsupported OS:
./install_MC_fedora.sh -b or ./install_MC_fedora.sh -b -v 25.0.44
--- End code ---
NEW: If no version is specified, the script will automatically attempt to install the latest version posted on Interact.
NEW: The -b or --build-only flag allows for cross-packaging on unsupported OSes. Tested on Ubuntu 16.04.
4. Install your .mjr license (only required once, change the filepath to match your license file):
--- Code: ---mediacenter25 /RestoreFromFile "~/Downloads/Media Center25 Master-XXXXXX.mjr"
--- End code ---
Changelog:
1. Added test for rpm-build package (and add if necessary) (20-FEB-2017)
2. Added test for rpmfusion repos (and add if necessary) (20-FEB-2017)
3. Script is now MC version agnostic and self-contained (20-FEB-2017)
4. Changed versioning system used in rpmbuild. MC point versions are now stored as the variation number. DNF may erroneously report a downgrade the first time the new package number is installed. (20-FEB-2017)

20. Add test repo check for beta versions (27-MAR-2019)
21. Added an automatic mode if no version number is specified (25-MAY-2019)
22. Added RPM check so the RPM is not rebuilt if it already exists in the BUILD directory (25-MAY-2019)
23. Automatic mode will not attempt to build/install the same MC version, better for cron or systemd timers (25-MAY-2019)
24. Complete refactor in preparation for repo (29-MAY-2019, v0.3)
25. Added optional [-b|--build-only] flag for cross-building on unsupported OSes (29-MAY-2019, v0.3)
26. Added optional [-a|--auto] flag for automatic version scraping (29-MAY-2019, v0.3)
27. Explicit version numbers can be passed using the new [-v|--version] flag (29-MAY-2019, v0.3)
28. Readd support for old syntax without version flag (./install_MC_fedora.sh 25.0.44) (29-MAY-2019, v0.4)
29. Small refactor (29-MAY-2019, v0.5)

BryanC:
I am going to continue symlinking the Fedora CA certificates to /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt for the time being.
budge:
Worked a treat.
Thanks very much!

Great script. Thank's! :D
Do you know a way to find out the newest JRiver version in stable or/and latest with some http request.
A page that just lists all the current deb versions would be enough. I can figure out how to parse it. I just didn't figure out where to find it other than browse the forums and pick the biggest number you can see...
Essentially, I wanna try to automate this. For now just downloading the deb's every day (if there is a newer version) and stuff the resulting rpms into my NAS.
If i'm feeling really motivated maybe I'll try my luck at creating a dnf repo for it. ^^
