Incorrect. kodi-devel-bin is the -devel version of community/kodi-bin, which means that it should be named kodi-bin-devel. It's no different from taking, say, systemd & systemd-libs, and turning it into systemd-git and systemd-git-libs, which is also wrong... or would be, except that systemd-git is better maintained. :) ... This is aside for the fact that I find the name of the community package "kodi-bin" to be strange, since it seems to be the x11 analogue to "kodi-wayland". @Ike, I'm curious what made you choose to call it "kodi-bin" instead of what seems to me like the more descriptive and accurate "kodi-x11". Perhaps it might make sense to change the pkgname? -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
