[gentoo-user] Kodi 19 stabilization

[Daniel Frey]

Does anyone know if Kodi 19 is planning to be stabilized soon? I haven't 
been able to update TV frontends since October.

(Before you say remove Kodi, don't bother - these are TV frontends and 
their only purpose is to run Kodi!)

I'm also not interested in unmasking a ton of things to get it to install...

I have been running Kodi 19 since it was added to Gentoo and only had
to unmask dev-libs/libudfread to get it to build. It has worked
well other than some (non official) add ons not working because they
have not been upgraded to Python 3.

I may have to look into that. Thanks. However, as I've already waited so 
many months what's another few? It's going to be a chore to upgrade 
either way. :o)
