Yeah... assuming you're running Fedora, I ran into this one.  I'm
running SVN on FC3 x86_64 with firewire - one day firewire wouldn't
enable.  Turns out that mythtv/configure checks for version 0.5.1 of
libavc1394.  Well, the latest version available from atrpms is 0.5.0.  I
just edited the config script to check for 0.5.0 instead and presto!
