But Larry, if you are not interested in compiling, maybe you ought to<br>
rethink your choice of CentOS for MythTV also. I.e. apply the right<br>
tool to the job at hand.<br>

I'd have to agree with this. I just don't see something like MythTV<br>
as the target audience for something like CentOS.<br>
<br>
Now, if you were going to run CentOS as a host and then run something<br>
like a MythTV appliance distro in a container underneath it, then I'd<br>
be saying that you're more in the target audience for CentOS. Then<br>
again, if hosting diverse containers is your goal, then something like<br>
CoreOS could be better still. CentOS is a bit more about stability<br>
and supportability than having a rich package database, especially for<br>
things like multimedia.<br>

What exactly do you two mean by this? MythTV is the target or CentOS is the target? Of what?<br>
<br>
I happen to host MythTV on CentOS. Finding the right repo for packages has been a problem. It was ATrpms. And now that some of the users have stepped up it still is.<br>
<br>
Why does it sound like the stability of Red Hat/CentOS is a *bad* thing for you? It sounds like you want to target the ever shifting sands of something like Fedora. A distro that demands updating once or twice a year.<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>This is exactly why I switched from Fedora to CentOS.
