Sorry to bother everyone, i have a media server thats running Ubuntu 14.06,  I have followed the wiki on how to install kodi for linux:

Code:


sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kodi


When i do this i get version 17.6 (which is what i was running before)

I have tried also:

Code:


sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/unstable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kodi


When i do this i get 18.0


Im not sure what I'am doing wrong, i just want the most updated version of Kodi 18.5. I do not know what else to post to help you guys to help me so please forgive me. (also im a noob at Ubuntu, just a heads up)

i have a media server thats running Ubuntu 14.06, 

So which one is it really? 14.04 or 16.04.

14.04 supports upto 17.6
If you want Kodi 19 alpha, use the nightly PPA.
If you want Kodi 18.5, use the stable PPA on 16.04

Damn @Klojum you are toooooo fast!

18.0 is the last release for 14.04  To get a newer version you would either have to build it from source or upgrade to 16.04

@Klojum 2:18.0+git20171109.1648-2a89e2d-0trusty is in the nightly repo.

It would be even better to use 18.04.

Its 14.04, crap did not even realize that 14.04 supports upto 17.6

Its time to upgrade the OS, thank you for your help!
