>As I read it, I've managed to install all the dependencies that were missing for the Python (and Perl) bindings and the bindings are built and installed.  (I had to install MySQLdb and lxml for Python.)  In addition, MythNetvision requires OAuth and PyCurl and both of those are installed now.  The latter was a real pain.

Hi:

I tried this on MythTV-Users without any response.  I've been poking at this for a couple of days and I really can't see any reason why MythNetvision claims that the Python bindings aren't there.  OTOH, I really know nothing about Python.

Could some kind soul point me in the right direction?
