[mythtv-users] mythmetadatalookup failures

[kalimputhawala at gmail.com]

I faced this problem in the past. 


What I did was:

Took a backup of my database.


Took a backup of storage directories.


Purged mythtv.


Went to Ubuntu software center and remove frontend and backend.


Installed all dependencies using ansible.


Recompiled myth tv.


Recompiled myth plugins.


If you've compiled mythtv , then you need to go to  the mythplugins directory as well and compile it too. (./configure steps) 




Make sure to run this command : git clean -xfd

when you recompile 




or follow complete tutorial here: https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Build_from_Source


What I had done was instead of using the git specific branch , I was using the tags. Had much problem but it was solved.

Thank you George. I am using the Mythbuntu 29-fixes repo. My system is up-to-date.








Does sudo apt-get update / upgrade show any held packages? 




Do you have multiple versions installed? I don't use Ubuntu but something like this might list installed versions:

dpkg -l | grep '^ii' | grep myth
