I'm well and truely kicking myself after having done an update without 
checking the forums first.

Whenever I try and run anything vaugely myth related I now recieve the 
relocation error which I believe from spending an hour searching the 
lists is down to a QT problem?

Bizarely enough, a standard apt-get install mythtv-suite would not 
proceed due to not being able to install mythbrowser ( >= 0.17) as a 
dependancy - however a dist upgrade pulled in the myth .17 packages 
which I'm now deeply regretting!

 From reading back on the list, it appears installing an updated version 
of QT is the only way to go?

remove redhat-artwork -D (to take out dependancies as well)
Install redhat-artwork rpm from FC2? using RPM command
Then use apt-get to install any packages that were removed (gdm? needed 
for auto login? Xine etc)

1) Is the above likely to work? Is there any other fix?
2) Is this simply a stop gap / hack of a fix where more and more 
problems will surface as time goes by, would it be better to switch to a 
newer distro version now?
3) Is there a link to the needed FC2 package? (just to avoid the 
possiblility of messing up further?)
4) I also notice mention of using the bleeding sources, rather than 
stable is this necassery? What do I need to do precisely?

Apologies for asking for hand holding, but I would rather not mess up 
the box anymore than I already have.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
