[mythtv-users] Build question

[Jon Whitear]

It's a long time since I've used Gentoo on my Myth boxes, but as far as a remember, DVB support is a config option for the backend only - it's not applicable to the front end.

I certainly never compiled mythfrontend with DVB-T support, and had no problems.
