[mythtv-users] The dreaded mythtv-suite - mythdvd problem

[Joe Votour]

I take it that you're using Fedora Core 3 (that's what
it looks like from the copy/paste that you put below).

If that is the case, then you won't be able to install
mythdvd (or maybe even mythtv-suite).

Please search the archives!  Had you searched, then
you would have found this message (among probably
others):
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/95326?search_string=mythdvd%20fedora%20core%203;#95326

If I recall correctly, the situation is that the new
gcc in Fedora Core 3 doesn't want to compile MythDVD,
so there's no RPM until that is fixed.
