Deleting Addon27.db fixed the Bennu installation problem on my 17.4.
Thank you!!!
I did everything by your example and I still get the error. How do I know what repository needs I need to fix? I even factory reset it and started from the beginning.
It fixed the dependency problem with Live Local Channels Cypher Addon. BUT, it WIPED OUT ALL MY ADDONS, ZIP FILES, REPOSITORIES. REALLY??
I need to know how to fix this dependency issue I’ve tried everything to fix it please help. Tried to install other add-ons and it still says dependency on version cannot be found
Please add a warning at the top that this method will clear all of your add-ons because you have wasted my time. To the people above, you need to restart Kodi and install your add-ons from a zip file, then install from a repository.
