Is data loss of mysqld  from a fully functional 17.6 --> 18.0b1 expected?  Basically, upon launching 18.0b1, a library refresh is preformed and data watch status data are overwritten.  As well, non-existent content (movies mostly) are added to the library.  I can post a full debug log in a few hours.

I made backups of /var/lib/kodi and /var/lib/mysql before I started, so I can easily revert back to the functionaly 17.6 state.

It's a late alpha / early beta... Always expect bugs and troubles with non-production software

If possible, re-install 17.6, enable debugging via the advancedsettings.xml file, and then upgrade your Kodi application if possible.
Provide the debug log (wiki) as well as the kodi.old.log file after the upgrade has finished.

Wow, the update this time was flawless.  I can't explain.

Thread marked solved.
