I have been waiting since 23rd of December for Kodi (new name of XBMC) to show up in OpenSUSE but nothing has happened. Does anyone know why it hasn’t been added or if it will be? Regards

Where are you looking, and what version of openSUSE?

Hi hendersj,
I have searched the standard repositories included in 13.2 x64, Packman and also using Google. It seems that almost every major distro has it in repositories but not OpenSuse and I can’t find a precompiled tar to download. Regards.
As one who uses the XBMC soon to be KODI I’ve been looking forward to it too. The Packman guys are working on it.
As you may know there are some new features to XBMC/KODI incorporation of these into Opensuse has had some problems. The people working on it at Packman are volunteers like us here in the forums. I know you probably hate hearing this as much as I do but be patient!!
It’s coming!!

As Sagemta indicates, this is hosted by Packman (it wouldn’t be hosted by
the project itself on software.opensuse.org because of codec licensing
issues - same reason other proprietary multimedia codecs aren’t part of
the stock distro). Sounds like the Packman folks are working on it.
I wouldn’t expect a precompiled tar to be produced.

Kodi 14 is available now! Thank you guys!
I was not criticising any of you with my question. I was just curious and anxious.
Update:
Kodi doesn’t start. I get almost the same error (just different paths and lines) as in this post but it doesn’t get solved by installing xdpyinfo. Any idea what might be the problem? I am using OpenSUSE 13.2 x64.
Since I didn’t have a 13.2 installation, I set it up in a VM and installed Kodi. After the installation and upon launch it complained about UnboundLocalError: local variable ‘bitDepth’ referenced before assignment. Simply installing xdpyinfo resolved this problem.
What error message does it output upon launching it (kodi) from a terminal?
Hi Miuku,
I also get the UnboundLocalError even though I have reinstalled xdpyinfo.
Could you run this command from a terminal and copy paste the output here, enclose it in code blocks, like this:
Cats are cute!
The command being: **strace -e open kodi
**You can run it as your normal user, no root privileges necessary nor sudo.

I don’t think anyone took it as criticism. 
It takes some time for packages to be updated, as maintainers need to do
some work, and there are too few maintainers.

Sounds like a good subject for a new thread.

The output means you’re lacking the libXxf86dga1 package - you should see if your system has this package installed.
Thank you. It was installed but I updated it unconditionally and that made my previous problem go away. Now it seems I need to install libmicrohttpd though.
kodi/usr/lib64/kodi/kodi.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libmicrohttpd.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Weird. Now it is complaining about libtinyxml0 and libyajl even though they too are installed.
Could you post the output of: zypper lr -d
and enclose that in code blocks too, also the output of; cat /etc/os-release
I had too update the two last mentioned packages using update unconditionally and NOW Kodi starts. What have I done to my OpenSUSE installation to get these problems? Regards.

I wonder if the 13.1 repo for lxde:/lxqt/ is causing issues.
Hard to say since you have so many home repos that may or may not have conflicting files. Anyway as long as it works, s’all good I guess.
Thank you very much for your help, Miuku. I will delete the LXQT repository since I do not use it anymore.
