There is a pretty big difference between those two binary packages.
16.1+dfsg1-2~bpo8+1 uses dependencies only from jessie and
jessie-backports and 17.0~rc2+dfsg1-1 uses dependencies from sid only.
The issue can be caused either by kodi or any dependency.
Let me compile 16.1 on sid and test that one.

Feel free to upload it to anywhere and drop me a private link or send
it to me compressed directly.
