Objective: Enjoy Kodi NextPVR PVR on MX Linux, Kodi version 18.9
Built the NextPVR addon from GitHub source, everything appeared to go smoothly. It built something that looks like a binary addon in ~/xbmc/addons/pvr.nextpvr:
$ ls
addon.xml icon.png pvr.nextpvr.so.19.0 resources
changelog.txt pvr.nextpvr.so pvr.nextpvr.so.8.0.1
copied that over to special://xbmcbinaddons/ => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kodi/addons
Kodi seems to pick it up, but doesn't like it. I believe the relevant log entries are:
2020-12-08 22:21:51.132 T:140648504069312 NOTICE: ADDON: pvr.nextpvr v8.0.1 installed

Am I doing something wrong here?
