Hi Yann,

Kodi requires gcc-4.8, otherwise these build errors occur:

According to https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7892382.html#7892382 gcc-4.7 can not compile the source code while gcc >= 4.8 can.

According to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6539009/gcc-exception-specification-of-default-destructor it might be possible to patch Kodi to make it compile with gcc-4.7 but neither do I have the knowledge nor the interest to do that so I restricted the Kodi package to gcc >= 4.8, this meets the build depends of the official Ubuntu package which also requires gcc-4.8: https://launchpad.net/~team-xbmc/+archive/ubuntu/xbmc-ppa-build-depends
