Hi,

I'm using Kodibuntu and have always updated the system with apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade. The last upgrade process installed a version

kodi-bin/trusty,now 2:17.0~git20160501.1247-alpha1-0trusty i386

Unfortunately this version is very instable, displays flickers on every touch of the Android remote control or when a video is replayed. to sum it up: it is unusable.

So my question: how can I roll back to the latest stable release? There is a possibility to downgrade to an older version with

apt-get install <package-name>=<package-version-number>

but I have no idea what package version number I have to give here. so any help for a rollback is highly welcome!

OK but there is no "kodi-bin" package!?

its in/part of the kodi package and has the same version

sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:ppa:team-xbmc/unstable
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove kodi kodi-bin
sudo apt-get install kodi

I have the same issue as the OP.
Software updates were available and when I launched Kodi it had upgraded to 17.It is completely unusable.
The commands in the post above don't work for me.
I want to go back to my previous version although I'm not sure which one it was
