Hi,
I would like to install the official Kodi packages on Debian. For this, i want to use the official 'install kodi for linux' guide on the wiki, specifically the 'Installing Kodi on Debian-based distributions' on: https://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kodi_for_Linux
Now, after adding the repo's, i cannot update them since apt update gives me an error, so i cant update:
Of course, this seems to make sense, since apparently, the repo that is added using:
only seems to contain Ubuntu packages. It refers to impish, and not to buster/bullseye or whatever.
So, my main question is:
I am just a bit struck that the guide saying 'install on Debian' seems only to work on Ubuntu. There probably is a good reason for this, but it is somewhat inconvenient.
Thanks,
Alexander.

Code:
Reading package lists... Done
E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu impish Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
Of course, this seems to make sense, since apparently, the repo that is added using:
Code:
add-apt-repository -ysP ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
So, my main question is:
- Why is that?
- Where are the official packages for Debian? (or do they not exist, and, for my interest, if so, why not).
- If there are no official packages for Debian, can I install the ubuntu ones ?
