Setup JRiver Media Center 20 In Ubuntu/Linux Mint

Awesome Donkey:
I fixed the tutorial above to reflect that dependency - my apologies for the late reply. I've been absolutely swamped as of late and sadly I just haven't had the time to focus more on the advanced parts of this tutorial but *hopefully* soon within the next few weeks my workload will significantly decrease and I'll have more time dedicated to updating and improving this tutorial!

P.S. Can this topic be stick'd? Thanks! :)

EDIT 03/03/2014: Still experiencing issues with time, part of the reason having to do with this long horrible Winter, but hopefully my workload decreases soon as Spring comes!

I am attempting to set up Ubuntu 13.10 64 bit so I can install Mediacenter 19.  I copied the setup code and got the following response when I entered it.

mark@AsusZ87:~$ sudo apt-get install libcurl3:i386 libx11-6:i386 lib32stdc++6 libmpcdec6:i386 libc6:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libx11-6:i386 xfonts-75dpi xfonts-100dpi libcrypto++9:i386 libasound2:i386 libuuid1:i386 libboost-regex1.49.0:i386 libicu48:i386 lame musepack-tools vorbis-tools

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 musepack-tools : Depends: libmpcdec6 (>= 1:0.1~r435) but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I am new to Linux and would appreciate any help.

Awesome Donkey:
Have you tried running sudo apt-get install -f from the terminal? Or try sudo apt-get install libmpcdec6 and see what happens. If those fail you can try running sudo apt-get remove musepack-tools but keep in mind you'll lose Musepack support.

85Duppie:
Thanks for your response.  Following are the results of the commands you suggested:

libmpcdec6 is already the newest version.
libmpcdec6 set to manually installed.

Am I correct in concluding that libmpcdec6 is already installed?  If so, should that be deleted from the code you initially posted to prepare Ubuntu for installing Media Center 19?  I am new to Linux, so I do not fully understand the results of the commands I entered.

Yep, looks like you've got it already and you should be good to go. Does MC start?

Well, it should automatically satisfy all dependencies, unless those have changed in the last few builds. When I get a new Ubuntu install up and going, I'll be testing exactly this (I'm trying to wait until Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is released).

sudo

apt-get

Basically what you did was install the required packages (binaries) from the terminal so the software (MC) can function correctly. libmpcdec6 was the specific package which originally gave out a broken package error (due to it not being installed/requirement satisfied), but it seems to have resolved itself, assuming you can now run MC without issue.
