@graydini commented on GitHub (Jan 11, 2026):

I had the issue too, the kodi flatpak was failing to launch because of a missing samba dependency. Since I don't really see a point in using flatpak INSIDE docker , i made a PR that runs it natively. (no controller support yet)

@camelcx commented on GitHub (Feb 2, 2026):

I had the same problem and managed to fix it locally. So there was 2 problem for me:

  1. Bubblewrap permission (same as OP: bwrap: capset failed: Operation not permitted). I needed to change the host config in the config.toml file like this (I copied from the Steam config, not sure if everything is needed, but at least "SYS_ADMIN"):
    "CapAdd": ["SYS_ADMIN", "SYS_NICE", "SYS_PTRACE", "NET_RAW", "MKNOD", "NET_ADMIN"],
    "SecurityOpt": ["seccomp=unconfined", "apparmor=unconfined"],
  1. samba dependency missing is due to a known issue of the flatpak at the time Kodi:edge was built. I have rebuilt the image locally without changing anything and it works afterwards.
