v18 Install fails at kodi-xrandr overwrite
#1
Hey, my PPA install fails part way through and I'm not sure how to fix it.
ERROR code: https://paste.kodi.tv/nejeterehi

NOTE: prior to install I did remove the Ubuntu Software store's version and used the PPA to install v18.
I then came here and looked up how to properly uninstall and I just needed to remove my settings folder. Tried again but no luck.

Can anyone help?

(Let me know if I'm missing any details)

OTHER INFO:
Version: 18 Leia
Distro: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Install Method: PPA, first removed Ubuntu Software store version
GIT Revision: kodi-x11_2%3a18.0+git20190128.1934-final-0bionic_amd64.deb Huh
Hardware: Dell Latitude e5540, Intel corei7 4600u, 8gb RAM, 500MB Samsung SSD.

I assume there are some leftovers

Please get me the output of: apt-cache policy kodi* | nc termbin.com 9999

This should return an URL, post that here please.

I entered that in a terminal but there is no output so I don't know what the URL is.

remove all old kodi packages, then reinstall kodi 18:
sudo apt purge kodi*
sudo apt install kodi-x11 [whatever addons you need]

Yeah I had tried that.

It just states it couldn't find kodi crash-logs.

then cd to a dir where no kodi crash logs are located or delete them Wink

Or escape the * so it doesn't glob to the crashlog files.

sudo apt purge kodi\*
