 That's what I thought indeed, so my question is: why not split texturepacker as
well? I'm not saying you have to split it off, I just wonder if there was any
reason to do it like this.

 Oooh, now I see, kodi-texturepacker is in fact kodi itself, just the host part
of it...

 Well, at least you could say what happens without the patch... But I think I
get it: this is needed because we're building a part of kodi separately instead
of as part of the full build. I would be more than happy with something to that
effect :-)
