[mythtv] Problem building fixes/0.26 when linking libmythtv with lots of messages like: 'yada1' referenced in section 'yada2' of videosource.o: defined in discarded section 'yada3' of videosource.o

It turns out 0.26 wouldn't build with the 0.25 libraries in /usr/lib. Once I removed the 0.25 libraries, the build succeeded.

As a developer myself I like to build from source when I find the software interesting.  Maybe I'll improve it or debug it, maybe not.  I'm enjoying the flame-war, though.
