[Bug 1837170] Re: Kodi package crash after the update of libdrm-amdgpu1

[Timo Aaltonen]

also, this bug should happen with 19.04 too, but so far I haven't seen
anyone file it

just for reference, the downgrade of libdrm probably helps because the
new version enabled a new feature which the new mesa supports. With old
libdrm the new DRI driver probably can't trigger the failure path.

so, pull all updates with that ppa enabled to see if it helps

Title:
  Kodi package crash after the update of libdrm-amdgpu1

Status in libdrm package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Greetings,

  The last update of libdrm-amdgpu1 caused a bug on Kodi package, making
  it to crash after loading any video or reproduce a black image.

  Version: 2.4.97-1ubuntu1~18.04.1        2019-07-03 15:07:54 UTC

    libdrm (2.4.97-1ubuntu1~18.04.1) bionic; urgency=medium

    * Backport to bionic for 18.04.3 HWE stack update. (LP: #1824111)

  Kodi gives this error:

  #3  0x00007f47676c60aa in ?? () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/radeonsi_dri.so
  #4  0x00007f47676c5dd7 in ?? () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/radeonsi_dri.so

  Repeated several times

  #3  0x00007f475ce2c5a6 in ?? () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libLLVM-8.so.1
  #4  0x00007f475ce2c425 in ?? () from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libLLVM-8.so.1

  Team-Kodi stated these errors are in relation to 'Not supported GPU
  drivers', when Kodi can't find these files.

  
  I've found the cause, and a temporary solution:

  This bug was caused after an update for the latest version of libdrm-
  amdgpu1 2.4.97-1ubuntu1~18.04.1

  So I grabbed the previous version from 
  https://mirror.transip.net/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/main/libd/libdrm/

  installed libdrm-amdgpu1_2.4.95-1~18.04.1_amd64.deb

  and now Kodi returns.

  
  I created a bug report, the problem affects multiple users.

  We have a PointRelease coming soon, would we have time to fix this package?

  Thank you for your assistance.
