[opensuse-packaging] mythtv packages
Hey everyone, I was wondering who is maintaining the Mythtv packages for gnome's software tools. I understand that the packages are UI independent but I have questions about the install process i.e. there didn't seem to be a "root" mythtv package like there is in search tool \ webpin. Any way thanks for the packages. P.S. is anyone interested in discussing a "homeserver" \ "Media center" build pattern? -- James Tremblay Director of Technology Newmarket School District Newmarket NH 03857 "let's make a difference" http://en.opensuse.org/education --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

well, unfortunately a no-go for mythtv, unless you find a way to strip ffmpeg from mythtv ... see also: http://en.opensuse.org/Application_Black_List -- with kind regards (mit freundlichem Grinsen), Ruediger Oertel (ro@novell.com,ro@suse.de,bugfinder@t-online.de) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Linux Fatou 2.6.24-rc7-git5-2-default #1 SMP 2008/01/13 20:45:43 UTC x86_64 Key fingerprint = 17DC 6553 86A7 384B 53C5 CA5C 3CE4 F2E7 23F2 B417 SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)

Even if there was a way to strip ffmpeg from it, I would question the value of such crippled package. -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol RUSNAK SUSE LINUX, s.r.o Package Maintainer Lihovarska 1060/12 PGP 0xA6917144 19000 Praha 9, CR prusnak[at]suse.cz http://www.suse.cz --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org

well, that's a ffmpeg problem ... I was merely thinking about linking against a common ffmpeg package as a shared library, but since every other package comes with it's own private copy of that, possibly even with different patches on top of arbitrary cvs/svn checkouts of ffmpeg it's not really doable. -- with kind regards (mit freundlichem Grinsen), Ruediger Oertel (ro@novell.com,ro@suse.de,bugfinder@t-online.de) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Linux Fatou 2.6.24-rc7-git5-2-default #1 SMP 2008/01/13 20:45:43 UTC x86_64 Key fingerprint = 17DC 6553 86A7 384B 53C5 CA5C 3CE4 F2E7 23F2 B417 SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg)

how about an "add-on" ISO hosted at opensuse-communty? a completely scripted install with all the third party "unmentionables" and lircd.conf and lircrc file generators. Automate the mythtv user and set the frontend to startup, etc,etc. -- James Tremblay Director of Technology Newmarket School District Newmarket NH 03857 "let's make a difference" http://en.opensuse.org/education --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
