homebridge-apple-tv: Install Failed

Separate install with sudo apt-get install libtool and sudo apt-get install autoconf worked for me. Thx @MrDrache333

Can you try to install the whole Plugin again with sudo npm install -g homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm?

sudo apt-get install autoconf automake g++ libtool

autoconf is already the newest version (2.69-10). automake is already the newest version (1:1.15-6). g++ is already the newest version (4:6.3.0-4). libtool is already the newest version (2.4.6-2).

Now I’m getting this errors in Raspibian

@MrDrache333 could you please help me

what would be the command for macOS / homebrew?

don’t worry - found it!

It’s brew install libtooland brew install autoconf

You will need homebrew obviously (Mac users)

Ok…installation works…use the Command ‘sudo npm install -g homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm’ and make sure you updated your Pi before with ‘apt-get update -y && apt-get upgrade -y && npm i -g npm’. During ‘sudo npm install -g homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm’ you will get tons of Compiling output…like 10-15min…but it works XD

Else post your Error code 😉

EDIT: My installation took exact 646.05s 😉

@MrDrache333 after installing automake, sudo npm install -g homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm works perfectly.Thanks !!

That worked, thanks!

I got much farther along after installing lib tool and autoconf and then running sudo npm install -g homebridge-apple-tv --unsafe-perm. Now I am getting this …

Thanks @MrDrache333 It’s all installed now! 😃

automake is required, but wasn't found on this system

Try install it too with apt-get install automake or brew install automake

Any ideas? I also tried brew install libsodium which installed but still not luck.

Also after the installation of libtool and autoconf? I installed previusly node-appletv. This plugin also needed sodium…i fixed that by installing the other needet packages manually…like i sayed
