 	Oh, and if anyone else uses Encap to sort out stuff in /usr/local, 
here's a slightly modified install script:

#!/bin/sh

PREFIX=/usr/local/encap/nuvexport-20040927
OI=mythtv
GI=mythtv

sudo mkdir -p ${PREFIX}
sudo chown ${OI}:${GI} ${PREFIX}
mkdir -p ${PREFIX}/bin
mkdir -p ${PREFIX}/share

# First, install nuvexport itself
     install -Dv -o ${OI} -g ${GI} -m 0755 nuvexport ${PREFIX}/bin/nuvexport
     install -Dv -o ${OI} -g ${GI} -m 0755 nuvinfo   ${PREFIX}/bin/nuvinfo
     install -Dv -o ${OI} -g ${GI} -m 0755 mpeg2cut  ${PREFIX}/bin/mpeg2cut

# Next, create the nuvexport shared directory
     mkdir -pvm 0755 ${PREFIX}/share/nuvexport

# Finally, install the other files
     for dir in 'export' 'mythtv' 'nuv_export'; do
         mkdir -pvm 0755 ${PREFIX}/share/nuvexport/"$dir"
         install -v -o ${OI} -g ${GI} -m 0755 "$dir"/*pm 
${PREFIX}/share/nuvexport/"$dir"
     done

#Populate symlinks in /usr/local/

sudo epkg -i nuvexport
