https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D248692 --- Comment #6 from James French <james@french.id.au> --- (In reply to yzrh from comment #5) Kodi 19 (pre-release) is already in the tree as multimedia/kodi-devel maintained by tobik@FreeBSD.org. The last bump on that was about 2 weeks ago for 19.0A1 so it's up to date if you want Kodi 19. This port should probably get bumped to 19.0 only when it's actually released. You're right that most addons are just xml and python, but there are some t= hat are compile C/C++ which need some attention. I'm referring to are the follo= wing ports: devel/kodi-platform (not an addon exactly, but needed to build them) multimedia/kodi-addon-pvr-hts multimedia/kodi-addon-pvr-iptvsimple multimedia/kodi-addon-peripheral-joystick They're all examples of kodi plugins that are compiled libraries and end up with a symlink of (for example): lib/kodi/addons/pvr.hts/pvr.hts.so.18.7 When Kodi goes up a major version, most of those ports need legitimate bump= s to bring them up to a supported version. When Kodi gets a minor version bump, = they all still work, but the ports currently break because their pkg-plist files reference a the old Kodi minor version. I've emailed those port maintainers with a suggestion of exposing the Kodi = API version in Makefile.addons which can then be included in the other ports so they keep working (the second patch). --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
