In case you really want to give it a try, but don't know how, here is
the necessary command:

  sudo zypper ar 'http://pmbs.links2linux.de:8080/home:/manfred-h:/kodi-next/$releasever/' 'pmbs-home:manfred-h:kodi-next'

all in one line ;-) After a "sudo zypper ref" you should accept the new
gpg key, and then you can install the new versions as usual (note the
repository change: --allow-vendor-change)

Cheers.
