The author of the grabber has only just fixed the problem in his fork of
xmltv
https://github.com/kgroeneveld/xmltv/commit/a0c8c88341ab0a3b9919135b424ef1470dc4d490
There is a pull request for the issue but as of the time of writing this
message it hasn't yet been pulled into xmltv yet so unless you are using
kgroeneveld fork of xmltv it's still broken.
https://github.com/XMLTV/xmltv/pull/222
It will be some time before this makes it into the various distro's as
well. xmltv will likely have to do a release before they pick up the fix.
