I had this error a long time ago.
I followed this instruction to fix it.
Although the add-ons named as examples are now long gone, the solution may still be valid.

That would have installed into kodi when you installed blamos repo, it is not needed. Goto system/ addons/ manage dependancies/ universal scrapers/ and uninstall it.

No Dave as those addons needed that scraper for their specific sites to scrape, just make sure you have the repo installed to receive the updates. But with that said those addons dying then the scraper isnt getting the updates from blamo so that 2 is dying hence the errors its throwing up.

Have used that 1 also (formally known as bubbles) and it takes up a whole lot of room in your kodi setup, it installes a hell of a lot of dependancies. I normally stay away from those type of addons as better to travel light rather than leave a massive footprint, each to their own tho mate.

When an addon is installed, pay close attention to what else gets installed with it. Because if then you find the need to uninstall that said addon the other dependancies etc that installed with it are left on your system. These are what cause most of the conflicts with other addons and updates not going thru etc can be a minefield at times.

Your so right sean99 - I decided last night to not install as I did some research and the baggage it seems to come with did not seem to be worth it. I use LE only simply because I like the system with no bloat ware and no apps or anything. I like things light to keep my box running as it should. Cheers Mate
