Hi everyone,
I'm trying to install MythTV on Debian testing, but I run into some
problems getting the mythtv and mythtv-database packages to install.
When trying apt-get install mythtv, I get the following error:
dpkg: error processing mythtv-database (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of mythtv:
mythtv depends on mythtv-database (= 0.18-1); however:
Package mythtv-database is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing mythtv (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
mythtv-database
mythtv
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Then I tried the following:
~# dpkg-reconfigure mythtv
/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: mythtv is broken or not fully installed
~# dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-database
/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: mythtv-database is broken or not fully installed
Both aren't installed yet.
dpgk-reconfigure --force doesn't make any difference either.
This is my mysql.user table:
+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| host | user | password |
+-----------+------------------+------------------+
| localhost | root | |
| pcname | root | |
| localhost | | |
| pcname | | |
| localhost | debian-sys-maint | password |
| localhost | mythtv | mythical | (same pswd as in
/etc/mythtv/mysql.txt)
+-----------+------------------+------------------+
The mythtv password is now plain text, since I wasn't sure if I was
escaping the special characters correctly.
I don't know what else to try :-(
Thanks,
Tim
