Description
The base kodi package does not allow for this condition.
When running the install you are prompted that xbmc is installed, tells you it will be removed, and aks if you want to continue or quit. When you answer yes, the install fails with the following message.
kodi: /usr/include/xbmc exists in filesystem
kodi: /usr/lib/xbmc exists in filesystem
kodi: /usr/share/xbmc exists in filesystem
The base package should remove those directory's as part of the removal process if they exist.

The update instructions say to remove XBMC for this exact reason. Pacman doesn't order the removal and replacement of XBMC with Kodi and so manual intervention is required.
