Issue adding Kodi Repository [Linux Mint]
###Solution on Post 34!!###
I have been experiencing issues when trying to add the Kodi repository to Linux Mint. I have followed the instructions here [http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kodi_for_Linux] and this is what terminal keeps sending back: Code:
xx@xx ~ $ sudo apt-get install software-properties-common Many Thanks |
Code:
mintSources: No section: 'general' could be /etc/apt/sources* or something else. the program complains that there's no section "general". are you regularly updating/grading? have you added fishy sources? |

Use command line to change ppa?
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Re...es/CommandLine It may be that you have to add in python-software-properties sudo apt-get install Not sure if apt or apt-get is part of the deal. |
Can you please paste the output from inxi -r so that we can see which repositories you have set up.

Ok, thanks. Looks good to me, although that first dukto one is in a form I've never seen before.
So, let's bring your system up to date before addressing the Kodi problem. apt update apt upgrade Please paste any errors. |

Ok. Let's try adding the ppa again:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa |
Hi hydrurga,
Thanks for the help so far. Got the same error - looks the same anyway: Code:
