      I am having trouble installing kodi for retropie. Every time I try to install kodi it can't find one of the packages I think, not sure if it has been moved... or what I can do to workaround/fix the problem. I get the error message "unable to install binary for kodi" I have included the log below.

      I have a PC x86 64 bit running linux mint 20

      Retropie 4.6.7

      built by script on top of linux mint following instructions here: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Debian/

      USB devices attached: mouse, keyboard, rock candy PS3 controller

      error message: unable to install binary for kodi

      here's where the log gets good:

      Fetched 786 kB in 6s (122 kB/s)
      Reading package lists...
      Reading package lists...

      Reading state information...
      Package kodi-inputstream-rtmp is not available, but is referred to by another package.
      This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
      is only available from another source

      E: Package 'kodi-inputstream-rtmp' has no installation candidate
      E: Unable to locate package kodi-vfs-libarchive
