Linux [Apr 25] - Unofficial Kodi 15.2, 16.1 FINAL, 16 RC, and 17.0 Alpha for Mageia 5 x64
#1

I've compiled Kodi and made public RPMs for Mageia 5 x86_64.

Kodi 17.0 Alpha 1
I'm now also offering nightly builds of the next version of Kodi. This one is def for those that wants to live on the bleeding edge. It will install to /opt/krypton.

Krypton is now my daily driver because I like Estuary so much. It's stable enough. A few crashes here and there, but it's not a show stopper.

Kodi 16 RC
There will be a new version online if there has been changes to the Git source.

Kodi 16.1 Jarvis
First build of Jarvis Final is up.

Kodi 15.2 Isengard
Have now compiled a second version of 15.2 Isengard with the options that the other two version have.

Head over to my server and download and test the RPM and let me know what you think.

  • Enabled my hack to use $HOME/.config/kodi, but also does a symlink to $HOME/.kodi to be on the safe side
  • The Spec file is now included in the .tar.xz. In theory, you can now use rpmbuild -tb kodi......tar.xz. Haven't tested.

Hi.

The Jarvis RPM is updated after I got a few suggestions on the Mageia forum.

Please check it out and let me know how it works for you.

Cheers,

I'm liking the Krypton default skin, Estuary.

What do you think? Why don't you give my latest build a try :-)

On mga5, I receive the error

" libmodplug.so.0()(64bit) is needed by kodi-16.1_Final.mga5-1.x86_64"

when I tried to install kodi-16.1; however, both the libmodplug and the devel package are installed.

rpm -qa | grep lib64modplug
lib64modplug1-0.8.8.5-4.mga5
lib64modplug-devel-0.8.8.5-4.mga5

I was able to install kodi using the all-nodeps flag

urpmi --allow-nodeps kodi-16.1_Final.mga5-1.x86_64.rpm

and it seems to run OK so far.

kekePower, thanks for all your great work! I'm having an install problem a lot like msjarrell mentioned. Kernel and Mageia distro are 4.4.16-desktop-1.mga5 x86_64. Regular urpmi install fails due to 2 dependencies that I cannot seem to reconcile. Here's the ouput from forcing nodeps:
Code:
$urpmi --allow-nodeps kodi-16.1_Final.mga5-1.x86_64.rpm
WARNING: --allow-nodeps option is in use. Some strange problems may happen


SECURITY: The following package is _NOT_ signed (OK ((none))): kodi-16.1_Final.mga5-1.x86_64.rpm
installing kodi-16.1_Final.mga5-1.x86_64.rpm
Installation failed:
        libmodplug.so.0()(64bit) is needed by kodi-16.1_Final.mga5-1.x86_64
        libopenmpt.so.0()(64bit) is needed by kodi-16.1_Final.mga5-1.x86_64
Try installation without checking dependencies? (y/N) y
Preparing...                     ###############################################################################
      1/1: kodi                  ###############################################################################
It installs to /bin/kodi and I'm able to open and run Kodi, but is there something that won't be working or that will cause problems? Cheers! Smile
