Ubuntu 22.04 Remove beignet-opencl-icd

[ChuckPa]

@martigs

What you should do (best) would be avoid HEVC content. H.264 content only.

[martigs]

In case of mounting a latest generation CPU, if there is no beignet-opencl-icd, it can be a problem in that case, right?

[ChuckPa]

For you, beignet not being there does not matter at all.

Would you please open a terminal window and type this command for me?

sudo /var/lib/dpkg/info/plexmediaserver.preinst

Next, Please get the contents of /tmp/plexinstaller.log and share that here (use </> code formatting button)

[chuck@lizum ~.2002]$ cat /tmp/plexinstaller.log

Here I attach the two commands I hope to be able to help in everything that is in my hands.

$ sudo /var/lib/dpkg/info/plexmediaserver.preinst

[ChuckPa]

Thank you for getting this.

@martigs

I need to fix this: CPUs without HW HDR capability should not be "Need"ing Beignet/OpenCL.

[martigs]

If I can help more, don’t hesitate to ask me.

Also note that for CPUs that support beignet-opencl-icd this library is not available in the latest version of ubuntu, only Intel-opencl-icd is available.

Would it be better to use the plex .deb or plex installation in docker?

@ChuckPa fyi… I upgraded to plexmediaserver_1.27.0.5873-8f821a871_amd64.deb and noticed that beignet-opencl-icd is reported as a recommended package …

This package should not be needed in my situation as I’m running a dedicated nvidia gpu and don’t have a intel gpu.

@anon5074910

I have updated the packaging.

Here is the preview thread.

Ubuntu 22.04 Packaging - development & preview

ALL; I’ve been working to update the Ubuntu/Debian packaging to account for how Ubuntu 22.04 repository packages have changed. I’ve selected 1.26.1.5772 for testing purposes as its database is compatible with 1.26.0 and above. EDIT: Changes incorporated The preinstaller is now sensitive to: – CPU (including Alderlake) – Distribution – Release version Using these three pieces of data, the preinstaller now compares what’s installed against what is needed and reports accordingly. T…

These changes have been submitted to QA for inclusion by Engineering.

Thanks. Do remember the other thread but didn’t check its full detail as it had moved on from the last I looked.

Thanks again.

[ChuckPa]

Did it move without my permission?
