As my Myth system is rather old (0.24.1 on Debian Squeeze) I'm not even going to try and get the up to date dependencies sorted on that. So for the time being I've setup a small VM on my laptop running Wheezy and have pulled in the later PERL version from Jessie. The SD JSON grabber is installed and appears to pull down sensible data - but the next step is a bit grey for me.

Yeah, I am in the same boat, I am running linhes 0.24-fixes and need to 
move from RT to SD.

Ideally I would like to get off linhes as well, but I have not found how 
easy that is to do.
