[mythtv-users] MySQL / frontend only

[Mark Emery]

Hi Mark,

In a nutshell, MySQL client lib is needed.

I've done just that yesterday to run the frontend on my rebuilt PC in
the office. (Dropped Mandrake, gone FC3.) 

I compiled MythTV from the 0.17 source, but had to install the MySQL RPM
(qt-MySQL-3.3.4-0.fc3.0) as without it myfrontend can't connect to the
server.

Regards,
Mark
