I've just installed Fedora 35 and Kodi via terminal with DNF packages. I've got 19.4 version. But after installing, Kodi won't start. When I attempt to start it, nothing happens. Then I've try opening it from a terminal, and I'm getting this error:

/usr/lib64/kodi/kodi.bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/kodi/kodi.bin: undefined symbol: _ZN3fmt2v86detail18throw_format_errorEPKc

What is that means? How I can correct it?
Previously, I've installed in Manjaro via snap, it runs properly although there's little crash I've got from log in /home folder. Sorry my bad English, not native English speaker. Thank you.
Fedora is an Linux operating system that tweaks, compiles and packages the Kodi sourcecode for their own software.
I suggest you contact them and provide them with the full Kodi debug log file, and not just a single line/entry from the log file.

Updating to fmt-8.1.1 from fedora 35-updates repo should at least get you beyond this error message.


Ignore the fact this is on fc37, the fmt-8.1.1 source the same and will provide the same symbol for fc35.
bash:
[rj@rawhide ~]$ nm -D /usr/lib64/libfmt.so.8.1.1 | grep _ZN3fmt2v86detail18throw_format_errorEPKc
0000000000004870 T _ZN3fmt2v86detail18throw_format_errorEPKc

[rj@rawhide ~]$ dnf repoquery -f /usr/lib64/libfmt.so.8.1.1
