If it's anything like what I've seen, you've got a catver.ini in DOS 
format.  Try unzipping it with the "-a" switch to get it in Unix text 
format, then rescan for games.

The problem is that the trailing line feed gets inserted into the 
database, which prevents the later *search* query (which has the line 
feed stripped by virtue of passing through a QT control) from matching 
anything. I wrote a patch to fix this, i.e. allow bos DOS and UNIX 
format catver.inis to be used (along with a few other bugs in mythgame 
that prevented me from using it)... but I didn't submit anything because 
the current SVN code for mythgame is completely different from 18.1.

That did it!  The stupid RPM had a DOS format catver.ini.  I just ran
dos2unix against it and it works like a charm.

Thanks.
