[mythtv-users] rpms for mythtv 0.15

[Josh Burks]

Peter,

Since my mythfilldatabase "just worked", I really don't have any good 
advice for you. Something you might try is renaming tv_grab_na to 
tv_grab_na.ORIGINAL and linking to tv_grab_na_dd and then run 
mythfilldatabase and see what happens.

# mv /usr/bin/tv_grab_na /usr/bin/tv_grab_na.ORIGINAL
# ln -s /usr/bin/tv_grab_na_dd /usr/bin/tv_grab_na

Also, something I did earlier in the week (before I learned that XMLTV 
and Zap2It are broke) was update XMLTV, which I thought would fix the no 
listings issue. This update also updated my perl version from 5.8.1 to 
5.8.3, tv_grab_na and tv_grab_na_dd are both perl scripts.

Sorry I don't have anything else, it's Friday, and it's been a long week....
