Can't get rid of old kodi 17.6
#1
So I am a long time user of Kodi/XBMC, and I stuck to old Kodi 17.6 because I loved 17.6 with Aeon MQ5. I have now seen Kodi Leia 18.2 with the latest Aeon skins, and its awesome !!!!

But I have done something so that my Kodi stays at 17.6, and it wont update. I have removed Kodi, done the command line stuff to remove the old and add the correct repository, but it just keeps installing 17.6..........

FYI, i'm on Ubuntu 14.04

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP !!!!

That's correct.
 If you actually look in the ppa https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/ubuntu/ppa you'll see that the lates version offered for trusty (14.04) is 17.6.

Upgrade your OS.
It's not possible to build Kodi for 14.04, that os is too ancient.

FYI Ubuntu 14.04 is EOL since last month. Not sure about the exact date. Bat as it's May now and EOL of 14.04 was in April 2019, you should really consider switching OSs

FYI, as per yesterday April 30th, Ubuntu 14.04 is officially no longer a support operating system.
Also, SHOUTING as if you are 4-year old who on a sinking raft in some ocean, does not really speed up our forum support.

Thirdly, there is no Kodi 18 or later for Ubuntu 14.04 in Kodi's PPA, you will need Ubuntu 16.04 or later for Kodi 18.
