Description Martin Janser 2015-03-22 14:23:39 UTC
Description of problem:

If cppmyth is used with the mythtv pvr addon in kodi it will crash with an invalid pointer error. This seems to be a problem with the linking of jansson library which is already fixed upstream.

I currently fixed this issue by compiling a newer version of cppmyth using the SRPM and removing the jansson parts from the SPEC file.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
cppmyth-1.1.0.2-2.fc21


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Setup a working mythbackend
2. Activate and configure mythtv pvr addon in kodi
3. Activate LiveTV option in kodi

Actual results:
Kodi crashes with an invalid pointer error. See upstream issue for more information.


Expected results:
LiveTV in Kodi works with MythTV as backend.
