Thanks for any help

Hello,

can you run Menu>System>Lite Tweaks
and select "package cache"
then click begin.

After this use Menu>Favorites>Install Updates

and post any errors.

Hi
I have done as you suggested and re-run the update, thanks

How did you originally install Kodi? Looks to me like there was a PPA added at some stage.

Kodi was installed through the install software tool, no PPA was added at all Jerry, thanks for your help

Lite Software offers version 15.2, there is no way for 17.3 to get into your system without it being manually added.
What is the output from a terminal of:

Code:

grep -r --include '*.list' '^deb ' /etc/apt/ | sed -re 's/^\/etc\/apt\/sources\.list((\.d\/)?|(:)?)//' -e 's/(.*\.list):/\[\1\] /' -e 's/deb http:\/\/ppa.launchpad.net\/(.*?)\/ubuntu .*/ppa:\1/'

This is the point where the install fails

[bitsnpcs]

I don't know how it has occurred [member=2]Jerry[/member] will know this.

I have not installed any other Kodi versions, I used the Official supported one from Lite Software.

You will need to use Menu>System>Lite Software and uninstall Kodi recent attempt of 15.2 (if it is shown as installed) over 17.3

Then open the terminal and remove the repository -

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:team-xbmc/ppa

remove ppa packages -

Code:

sudo ppa-purge ppa_team-xbmc

remove official packages -

Code:

sudo apt-get purge kodi*

remove kodi settings and folders (not files)

Code:

rm -r ~/.kodi/

To do clean official 15.2 install then, as usual method for Lite Software (very streamlined/efficient) -

Menu>System>Lite Software

enter password when prompted
tick yes to check sources
selected Install Software>OK
tick Kodi
click Install button.
click Back to task Selector
click Quit
