I have mandrake 10 distro and I have succesfully compiled some programs on it..
Recently i bought a digital video card (dvb) and discovered, that MythTV rpms dont by default offer dvb support, so I needed a recompile. I first removed any myth rpm and got the 0.15 tar.bz2 version of mythtv..

I tried to compile the thing, with following output:


> cd mythtv-0.15.1
> /configure

Please note that these settings only deal with libavcodec, not MythTV.
CPU x86
Big Endian no
MMX enabled yes
Vector Builtins yes
Creating config.mak and config.h

> qmake mythtv.pro
> make

cd libs && qmake libs.pro -o Makefile
/bin/sh: line 1: cd: libs: No such file or directory

make: *** [libs/Makefile] Error 1

---- So what seems to be obvious, that the makefile that qmake does tries to cd to libs directory , which IS under mythtv-0.15.1. Go and figure.


So I tried to make mythtv from SRPM (PLF). same version, same kind of symptoms;

rpm -ba mythtv.spec
Executing(%prep): /bin/sh -e /home/samppa/rpm/tmp/rpm-tmp.31902
+umask 022
+cd /home/samppa/rpm/BUILD
+cd /home/samppa/rpm/BUILD
+rm -rf mythtv-0.15.1
+/usr/bin/bzip2 -dc /home/samppa/rpm/SOURCES/mythtv-0.15.1.tar.bz2
+tar -xf -

+'[' 0 -ne 0 ']'
+cd mythtv-0.15.1
/home/samppa/rpm/tmp/rpm-tmp.31902: line 29: cd: mythtv-0.15.1: No such file or directory
virhe: Bad exit status from /home/samppa/rpm/tmp/rpm-tmp.31902 (%prep)


RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /home/samppa/rpm/tmp/rpm-tmp.31902 (%prep)


Again, the mythtv-0.15.1 folder IS under rpm/BUILD and rpm/SOURCES. This error repeats itself when root also.
Im lost.... PLS HELP

Myabe I should add to this, that suddenly the "make xconfig" with kernel 2.5.7.sds does not work correctly, probaply part of my problem. The fonts that kconfig uses are nothing but nonsense symbols.... What is causing this??? any1?

same problem here, I tried to load Mythtv from CVS on terminal, and i get errors.

see if you can go to www.linuxtv.org, and download the latest dvb drivers, it inclused mythtv... Im having problems on Mandrake 10 official. My problem hangs up on make command.
