Not to nitpick, but you have made an assumption that is not correct. I
am the one that opened the ticket. I am the one that posted the patch. I
am not the one that bumped the ticket. Therefore telling the person that
bumped the ticket to apply his patch rather than bumping his ticket is
wrong.
If fact, I do build from source (I maintain MiniMyth) and I include my
patch. I opened the ticket and included my patch because there where
other users posting on myth-users that they were having the same
problem. Since they use other distributions (in this case ATrpms), my
patched version of MiniMyth was not a solution for them.
I guess this is what I get for trying to be helpful. I won't make that
mistake again.
