Contact the Kodi forums, they are more likely since it's their software, to provide a solution.

Thanks for the infor that I need to use dist-upgrade.

I have used all update and upgrade (except I didn't know to use dist-upgrade) code. Moreover, something changed yesterday and Kodi totally got installed, with one caveat: I got all my config done, I set up real-debrid... but Kodi choked on Trakt.TV setup, don't know why, just got a "failed" message. My next move would be to check the Kodi log file, soon as I figure out where those are stored...

Did you installed the updates after you installed your system if not please update now with "install updates" (recommended way) or run
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
(works too). And then try to install Kodi again.

LL uses sudo apt-get dist-upgrade for the record :)

I tried different ways. There was the way of installing it via Terminal shown on the Kodi site for Ubuntu distros. There was Synaptic, which was tried several times including complete removal. There was fixing broken packages using Synaptic.

Tonight, I ran sudo apt update (not the first time I've done it), ran into the broken package again, ran sudo apt delete --purge kodi, and ran sudo apt update again. This time, Kodi installed (using the ppa installed in my first step).

So whatever the problem was with kodi-x11, it has been repaired. I was hoping to hear that someone here fixed it, but alas, that is not the case... but it's working now anyhow.

I just installed Linux Lite 4.4 a few days ago. I have had very few problems, and none of them are critical.

When I installed, the repo still had Kodi 17.3. I knew that 18.1 was current, so I followed the rules (re: Ubuntu distros) to add the repo and update. It failed, I think it was the kodi-x11 file. So I deleted and started over, noticing that the repo was also updated to 18.1 (I love Synaptic, btw). Same problem. Sometimes I get the result that the linuxliteos repos are not available, others it just fails.

Is there a fix for this?

Update: I just tried again, and got the same issue. It chokes on kodi-x11, then returns the message, E: Internal Error, No file name for kodi:amd64
