I 'updated' KODI using software manager (mint 17.3) and it erased kodi from my desktop, taskbar and all reference to it in synaptic. I went to the following website

http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kodi_for_Linux

to reinstall it and I am getting the following when I try to reinstall Kodi


sudo apt-get install kodi
