[mythtv-users] Q about Myth on FC1

I rebuilt my MythTV machine yesterday, using the guide
by Jarod.  Here's the pitfalls I encountered (only two
of them, which is good):
1. I had to comment out the repositories for
kde-redhat.  If I didn't, then I would get a complaint
from apt-get that redhat-artwork conflicted with GTK2.
2. The tv_grab_na script seems to be missing from
XMLTV.  The documentation says that you should use the
new Zap2It Data Direct service, but mythfrontend is
apparently still hardcoded to call tv_grab_na.  I
couldn't find any way around that, so I grabbed the
XMLTV source, compiled it and it replaced the existing
XMLTV RPM.
