Hi Richard,
Sounds exactly like the problem I was having and it frustrated the hell
out of me. Did you delete the build directories in all the relevant
freevo and kaa subdirectories ? Also the one extra delete I did just
before I got it to work was to delete /usr/share/freevo/ (along with the
site-packages/freevo & kaa dirs). Finally I didn't have TV_CHANNELS set
in my local_conf.py so I set it. I'm not sure which one of these actions
solved it. I was installing site wide without the pythonpath (which I
think you are?) so I don't think that is part of the problem.
John
