Kodi replacing XBMC ...?
Hi all. Just wondering if anyone knows if Kodi 14 is going to make its way into the main repositories any time soon now there's apparently a 'stable' release?
Just installing it from the AUR now....

The package will be transferred to [community] if a Trusted User adopts it.

Yes, it is already in [community-testing] and yes, it will replace xbmc (just a rebrand).

Wow, quick replies there!
Nice to hear that it's in the testing repo's. Guessing it will filter down into the main repo's in the next couple of weeks then....
