When I try to load Kodi I'm getting the following error:

/usr/lib/kodi/kodi.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libunibreak.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Have Kodi running fine on a similar machine in my home so not sure what the problem is. Google hasn't helped.

EDIT: I'm noticing it's using intel graphics....I have an NVIDIA 4060 so trying to figure out what's going on there. Maybe that's the whole issue.

Thank you!

You appear to be missing a so so either you're missing a dep (hint look for which package supplies that file) or your mirror is out of date and that is an older version of the so.

On Arch (not Manjaro):

Code:

% pkgfile libunibreak.so.5
extra/libunibreak

Do you have that package installed?

Did the trick. Thank you. No idea why it didn't install with Kodi when I installed it. Never had to go and search for it like I did this time.

They might be missing a dep in their libass package.  I gotta say their web interface for their packages is horrible.

On Arch Linux, one of kodi's dependencies is libass.  That in turn has a depends of libunibreak among others.
 

Code:

% pacman -Qi libass | grep Depends 
Depends On      : fontconfig  fribidi  glibc  harfbuzz  libfreetype.so=6-64  libunibreak

Apparently the manjaro package for libass lacks that dependency (you have to click the blue details icon).

You should report a bug against their package.
