	qmake is part of Qt. You probably need to install a package/rpm/etc.
that include Qt-development. 

	Also, I should have pointed out before that mfd almost always needs
libmyth (from core mythtv) that is CVS current. So ... you may want to
be patient and wait another month or two until there's a release that
includes mfd. If, on the other hand, you're still feeling up to it,
current Myth CVS is quite stable.

	Mfd is enough to play myth content in iTunes (although you need
libopendaap installed as per the README).

	If you want to play iTunes content on your myth box, then you'll need
mfe (and the faad library as per mfd README).
