I have had problems in getting kodi addons to update in Kodipup. (puppy linux)
Had to use a very ugly hack to get addon updating to work.
What I did is created this in the script ".xinitrc"
It renames .kodi directory to kodi
Creates directory .kodi
Copies everything from kodi to .kodi directory
And deletes the kodi directory.
Could someone tell me why this works?
I have found out, that folder and file ownership has nothing to do, with the reason, why it works.
I suspect, that it might be file attributes.
But lsattr & chattr doesn't work in Kodipup (puppy linux).
I am looking for a more eloquent way to fix this problem.

mkdir /root/.kodi
cp -R /root/kodi/* /root/.kodi/
rm -R /root/kodi/
