[mythtv-users] Segmentation faults when running mythtv components on Fedora 17

I came across an old post from a Debian or Ubuntu distro where someone had
a similar problem. This problem actually got worse before it got better.

I tried using package-cleanup to remove any detritus from the system, as
suggested, and when I rebooted the next time, Xorg also failed with a
segmentation fault. That's when I recalled that Debian post where the user
reinstalled all the xorg packages. So, I tried ...

yum reinstall '*xorg*'

... and that fixed everything up. X started again, and when I restarted the
system cleanly, myth came up fine. I'm still not sure what library or
libraries where the issue, but at least I have a lead on how to fix it if
it happens again.

Thanks,
Michael
