[mythtv-users] Can't enable DVB and DVB-Path in ./configure

I am trying to manually compile MythTV for my first time.  I think I  
have finally got all the environment variables set correctly.   
However, I can't get enable-dvb and dvb-path to be set with ./ 
configure at the same time.

Following the instructions in thread:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/214369? 
search_string=what%20is%20dvb%20support%20configure;#214369

I have verified that my kernel has DVB support.  (Besides, my current  
version of Myth is using the DVB card.)

I have determined that my proper dvb path is "/usr/src/kernels/ 
2.6.19-1.2911.fc6-i686/include/dvb/".


However, when I go to enable dvb:
$ ./configure --enable-dvb --dvb-path=/usr/src/kernels/ 
2.6.19-1.2911.fc6-i686/include/dvb/

the dvb path will be set, but enable-dvb will still say no:
DVB support   no [/usr/src/kernels/2.6.19-1.2911.fc6-i686/include]


If I enable dvb with setting the path:
$ ./configure --enable-dvb

dvb will enable but my dvb-path will revert to the default:
DVB support   yes [/usr/include]

How can I get both set correctly at the same time? Or do I have to  
get them both set correctly?

Will dvb install with just the dvb-path set?  Or, will dvb install  
correctly with the default dvb-path?
