[mythtv-users] git master python bindings don't work for me

[Ryan Patterson]

I'm trying out mythtv git master.  I installed it yesterday (upgraded
from 0.24).  The only trouble I'm having is with the python bindings
and the metadata scripts not working.

I use a prefix of '/usr/local/' for my mythtv install.  So during the
install the myth python bindings are copied to
'/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/MythTV/'.  And I do in fact
see them there.

But if I run the command
'/usr/local/share/mythtv/metadata/Television/ttvdb.py -l en -M Macross
Zero', I get the following error message. . .
> The modules tvdb_api.py (v1.0.0 or greater), tvdb_ui.py, tvdb_exceptions.py and cache.py.
> They should have been installed along with the MythTV python bindings.
> Error:(No viable database module found.)

This is on ubuntu 11.04.  I'm compiling mythtv from git master and
there are no other patches.  Can anybody help me out here?  What am I
doing wrong?

My configure command is as follows: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
--enable-proc-opt

The output from 'mythfrontend --version' is. . .
