[linux-dvb] Re: newbie: Via EPIA / Gentoo / DVB-T installation -DVB compile errors.

[Charles McCrimmon <Specis@Specis-Design.co.uk>]

Lo there,

Im also using Gentoo linux and had the exact same problem with mythtv
emerge, i got round it by manually editing the mythtv ebuild file i
commented out the lines for the two libs and uncommented dvb section
which is commented out for some reason on the mythtv ebuild, 

then i followed the standard install for it

USE="mysql" emerge qt

needed above as the qt lib needs to be compiled with mysql support for
mythtv

then

USE="dvb" emerge mythtv

and away it goes 

hope this helps
