I can compile Kodi 17 to the end, however, when it's compiling i notice these errors regarding TexturePacker so it never gets built:

What might be causing these errors?

you are missing all these libs

I solved the problem by using this patch:

https://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/14.2...cker.patch

copy it into the kodi 17 source code directory then:

patch -p0 < kodi-texturepacker.patch

or just use the kodi slackbuild instead of compiling yourself!
