Thanks. Just a few more questions:)
It seems that distutils wants me to provide some information that isn't
in the current setup.py. Here is what I intend to put:
setup(
name='MythTV',
version='0.21',
description='MythTV Python bindings. Modified by Ian Barton',
maintainer='Ian Barton',
version='0.21.1',
packages=['MythTV'],
)
Hopefully, that's OK. If I can find the original authors of the various
python bindings, I'll credit them in the Readme.
Finally, according to comments in the source Myth is released under the
GPL. I was intending to release my stuff under the GPL, so I presume
that will be in line with the rest of Myth.
Ian.
