[Dev] Kodi

Hi again Josh,

I have pushed a patched* kodi to [libre-testing] for you to test.
Judging from the commit message the patch is aimed at hardcoding a 
value that
isn't being correctly reported for Mali GPUs, but I don't known whether 
this little
change affects non-Mali devices. That's why I will be keeping it in 
[libre-testing]
for the time being.

Moreover, if that patch is just helping surmount problems in the 
proprietary
Mali driver I'm afraid my action could be regarded as introducing a 
dependency
on non-free software and recommending non-free software, even though 
it's
quite small a change.

Assuming there's no freedom issue and assuming the package is working I 
think
we should look forward into integrating those fixes somewhere along the 
upstream
ArchARM -> Kodi line.

Same file but different bug. That patch is already merged in the 
release we are using.
