Kodi can't be installed

[maoanran]

AltStore doesn't work with kodi 19.3, failed with unknowing error occurred, I managed to use sideloadly to install the same ipa file of kodi, so I think it should be a bug in AltStore.

There are some other tickets with kodi, I guess they are the same issue. https://github.com/rileytestut/AltStore/issues/1000 https://github.com/rileytestut/AltStore/issues/169

thanks for this info and we'll take a look at this certainly and see if we can't provide a fix

Can you tell me if you are creating the IPA yourself from the official install guide or if you are getting this IPA from another distributor?

I have the same issue and I think I can contribute here. I tried creating the IPA following the official guide, and I also tried from other distributors (e.g. kodiipa). The only way I was able to get Kodi to install successfully was via Sideloadly.

I'm happy to provide as much additional info as you need.

Which version actually worked or all of them did eventually with sideloadly?

[dextorer]

I tried 19.3 a while back, and 20 just a few days ago. Both worked with Sideloadly and not with AltStore unfortunately.

Ok, I'll do some more testing this week on it and see if we can narrow it down better. thanks so much for the info

@shanegillio You may have to add support explicitly. Refer to this comment by Sideloadly developer:- https://www.reddit.com/r/sideloaded/comments/s36x53/comment/hsiz3eg/

[shanegillio]

that makes some sense then - thanks for the reference

[dextorer]

Just chipping in again here, I tried to install the IPA again, this time I got a more meaningful error:

/Users/rileytestut/iCloud Drive (Archive)/Documents/Developer/Projects/AltStore/Dependencies/AltSign/AltSign/ldid/../../Dependencies/ldid/ldid.cpp(709): _assert(): Swap(mach_header_->filetype) == MH_EXECUTE || Swap(mach_header_->filetype) == MH_DYLIB || Swap(mach_header_->filetype) == MH_BUNDLE

Hopefully that helps to narrow down the issue even further.

same error used kodiipa tvOS ipa

Alert: Could not install orgxbmckoditvos2010tvos_1687930212.ipa to unknown.

Press any key to continue...

Has anyone been able to get this to work lately?
