I'm not sure about the RPM distributions, but I know that getting dependencies handled on Debian is fairly straightforward. Is there some way of making a "dependency" package in RPMs or something, or depending on RPMs from rpmfind? > The main complaint I keep seeing about MythTV is that it is hard to > install. Freevo is probably harder to do from scratch. I don't want to be a Debian zealot, but the approach for Debian sounds like it would work for others. apt-get install task-freevo This command fetches every dependency we need, from SDL, pygame, python, etc. and then you can run a snapshot, or a release pretty much without doing anything except running the setup script. I can't believe that there is not option for the (much more popular and prevelant) RPM distributions...
