What for 4 packages? What about compiling with KBD and use
remote-plugin? And you don't need "none" - just start with "-d" for
"deamon".

Would be good. What about building a vdr-dev-package containing the
complete VDR-source and a DVB-dev-package containing the complete
Linux-DVB-source. Then you just need to adjust the Makefiles of the
plugins to the paths the dev-packages are installed. You can place the
ready libraries into any directory you want. Just give the directory
with "-L"-option when starting VDR,
