[packman] Packman Digest, Vol 214, Issue 4

[ndordea]

Hi  Manfred ,

Thank you for your comments  that clarified the kodi  vs. addon packages .
Finally, from yast  I got kodi upgraded to 19.0 level by manually trying to install  the addons 
that were not marked for update/upgrade .
It went smoothly .....  
Thank you for your help .

Cheers!

ND
