I'm trying to help update the MLBMC addon to work with Kodi 15, as the owner is busy. I am a competent programmer but haven't worked with Kodi addons before, looking for some advice to help get started.
The code doesn't need any work (ostensibly), it's just the dependencies. I've managed to diagnose everything and get it to work manually, I'd just like to help provide this to the public.
The source: https://github.com/Yuioup/kodi-mlbmc
It seems to have two issues in Kodi 15 (it worked fine in Kodi 14). To get it to work, I had to:
apt-get install python-beautifulsoup
install librtmp.so.1 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librtmp.so.1
How would you go about resolving these missing dependencies? Binding them into the app seems like it would work but be a bad idea. Should they be placed in a repo along with the distribution? Or should the code be tweaked to reference some updated feature in 15 that replaced what was in 14?
Any offhand advice would be appreciated.
