Kodi v21.1 crash on startup - nerdyneckbeard - 2024-09-18

debug log -

I'm stumped as this setup used to run till a few days ago. I think there was a recent system python update? Debug log has the following at the bottom

Code:

CPythonInvoker(1, /var/lib/kodi/.kodi/addons/service.xbmc.versioncheck/resources/lib/runner.py): script aborted

Am I missing anything obvious here?

Nothing interesting in the log I believe. Capture a trace with GDB, that will show exactly what's going on. Make sure debug symbols are available either through installing them or via debuginfod.

Ok - got a core dump listed in journalctl

However, I suppose something more is required...

Thanks. That's an upstream Python problem, see https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/24440

Any idea on what I can do or which specific addon to disable? The issue conclusion isn't clear other than 'upstream needs to fix it`

I don't have the retrospekt plugin they mention and one of the comments does say that this is probably more than one specific plugin or ordering/race on how the plugins are intitialized (that does seem correct since just once yesterday, kodi started up fine and was stable)

I suppose moving addon folder out of addons is good enough to disable it?

For anyone else landing up on this thread - solved temporarily by removing Aeon Nox Silvo plugin that was triggering the crash...

I much prefer it to the default skin -but Confusedigh: - I need a working system and for now if that means living with the default skin, then so be it Sad
