Linux Install Kodi 14.2 on Ubuntu
#1
Hey,

I just spun up a new Ubuntu machine hoping that I would be able to install Kodi 14.2 on it, so that it would be able to sync with the rest of my MySQL library machines that run Kodi. This isn't a problem for me with Windows Machines, because I still have the old installer file.

However, it seems that the only kodi available in the repo is 15.0. I searched, but all I could find is outdated articles on how to install 14.2 before Isengard was released.

Is there a method still available to get the 14.2 version now that Isengard is released?

Is there a chance that it would be compatible with a 14.2 MySQL library(I don't believe this has been the case in the past). I'd really like to avoid maintaining two separate libraries.

It's still in the PPA:

... I suspect you simply need to force it to install the Precise version, as that's the only one there. Grab it while you can, I'm sure I read that support for Precise was being dropped, hence no Isengard builds.

See https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/7543 for reference to Precise being dropped

User can still compile in precise using newer gcc.
