[Bug 1609169] Re: Unable to install kodi and mythtv

 

Verified as affecting upgrades from 14.04.5 to 16.04.1 that already have
current 0.28 mythtv installed pre-upgrading to 16.04.1 (Tested in a VM
as a fresh 14.04.5 install --> .28 --> 16.04.1).

Adding kodi repository gives error:

"The following packages have unmet dependencies. Kodi: Depends: kodi-bin
(>= 2:16.1-git20160425.1001-final-0xenial) but it is not going to be
installed.

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages."

Solution:

sudo apt-get remove mythbuntu-desktop

sudo apt-get install kodi

sudo apt-get install mythbuntu-desktop


It appears upgrading from 14.04.5 to 16.04 misses or uninstalls some dependencies, which get reinstalled by removing and then reinstalling the "master" mythbuntu package. 

This procedure also reinstalls useful mythbuntu tools like the HDHomeRun
utility, which the 16.04 upgrade removed.

Title:
  Unable to install kodi and mythtv

Status in Mythbuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  OS Version: Mythbuntu 16.04.1

  Xenial uses libtag1v5.
  Kodi uses libtag1v5.
  MythTV uses libtag1c2a.

  The result is that when you try to install Kodi on a system that is
  using MythTV you end up with a conflict and the only way you can
  install Kodi is to remove ALL of mythv. The conflict is caused by
  MythTV being compiled against the wrong version of libtag1.

  MythTV Repo: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/0.28/ubuntu xenial
  main

  Kodi Repo: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu xenial
