[mythtv-users] Gentoo and CVS

[Nick Rosier]

Simon,
tried your ebuilds but run into a strange problem; the ebuilds don't
detect that QT was compiled with mysql support but when checking the
/var/db/pkg.../USE file, it's there. Also, when I bypass
mysql-detection, I notice that e.g. lirc support is not compiled into
mythtv although I've got lirc in my use-flags.

Any idea?

N.
