[mythtv-users] Re: GUI setup fails RH9.0, Myth0.8

[Al Brower]

I had the same problem. I eventually used the RPMs hosted at
http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/dist/rh9/mythtv/.

This installs files in different directories than the source package, and
the setup binary is /usr/bin/mythtvsetup (instead of
SOURCE_DIR/setup/setup). I also needed to move mysql.txt (from my original
source file installation attempt) into /usr/share/mythtv/.
