Do you have any packages on hold? dpkg -l | grep ^h
Do you have any packages pinned, either manually, or by way of some
automatic action performed by apt-listbugs? I'm not an expert in
pinning, but maybe start with: grep -ri pin /etc/apt
If neither of these is the case, then I'd try:
apt-cache polisy kodi kodi-bin # just to get some information
And if that looks OK, then:
apt install kodi kodi-bin
Or maybe:
apt -f install # with no packages, just to try to fix what's broken
In all cases, be prepared to tell apt "No" if it asks you to do something
that looks undesirable, like removing stuff you care about.
