And before you ask , I do have 'deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main' in my source.list. The problem is that one of the source deps is for xinerama-dev, which does not exist in sarge. If you use apt-cache showsrc mythtv install the dependancies by hand and just ignore any that don't exist, you can compile on sarge ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Actually, since mdz has done such a fine job of providing debianized source packages ( http://dijkstra.csh.rit.edu/~mdz/debian/dists/unstable/mythtv/ ), all you really should need to do is: Add the deb-src to your /etc/apt/sources.list: deb-src http://dijkstra.csh.rit.edu/~mdz/debian unstable mythtv Get the build dependencies installed: apt-get build-dep mythtv Get the sources (in a scratch or build directory of your choice): apt-get source mythtv mythplugins myththemes cd into each directory and issue build commands (you'll need to have installed debhelper, devscripts, possibly some other small packages): cd mythtv-0.18.1-1 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us If all goes well, debs will be created and deposited in ../ for you to run dpkg -i on. Once you've done this process once, it's pretty much trivial afterward because you already have your dependencies and helper scripts installed. This process worked fine for me using only the sarge repository and a few dependencies from 'deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main' ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

(which I would be happy to > do) I compiled it on my xbox, which is mostly woody, with a few sarge development libraries. So it will definitely compile on sarge. Just need someone with a more mainstream system to build the debs and make them available as the new versions come out. -- Tony Lill, [EMAIL PROTECTED] President, A. J.
