Hello I recently installed kodi 16 on Ubuntu 14.04. The install appeared to work correctly, Kodi launches correctly, however, I'm unable to run any video addons successfully. I've tried a number of them only to receive "error check log". In the log it has a couple of errors:

from _sqlite3 import *
ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_sqlite3.so: undefined symbol: PyUnicodeUCS2_AsUTF8String
-->End of Python script error report<--
10:54:06 T:140560388978752 ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting plugin://plugin.video.youtube/
10:54:06 T:140560388978752 ERROR: CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory(plugin://plugin.video.youtube/) failed

Any help to resolve is greatly appreciated.

You linked against a manually installed sqlit library ...

Use our ppa, it has the correct dependencies. But it seems you broke your installation by doing this custom sqlite installation anyways.
