Yes, Deb packages for Freevo that worked would be easier, but they don't work,
making the process a dead end instead. That's why I suggested the source code
method. The only thing I would add to the info. I gave before, is to perform
the command "sudo" for root privilages before "python setup.py install".Also,
you need to have all the Kaa modules installed, before you install Freevo.If
you need any more help in the process, just read the documentation page on the
Freevo website.

I agree that would be nice to have functioning Deb packages. Right now I'm
using the 32bit Deb pkg and I'm running into the same problem that what Andrew
is describing.There is an issue with these Packages.

I also use Ubuntu Gutsy 64 bit version and I have Freevo 1.75 installed from
source. I have never had luck getting Freevo to work from the "Ubuntu"
repository run by Geole, so I would suggest using Synaptic to get rid of what
you have installed now and download and install the same version from Freevo's
website , using the the source code tarballs for Freevo and the 3 Kaa support
modules.They're really easy to install. Just remember it's all Python code, so
when you install, cd to your home directory and then "python setup.py install",
instead of the more common ./configure,make, make install.This applies to
Freevo and the Kaa modules.Then configure Freevo as you would have normally.

Hi,
A few issues with upgrading to the 1.8.0rc2 release that's within the
ubuntu repository. I'm running the amd64 version of the distro.
1. Freevo no longer runs! I didn't make any changes to my configs, and
freevo just silently fails to load.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ freevo --debug

2. The post-install script isn't working properly:
$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
Setting up freevo (1.8.0~rc2-0ubuntu1) ...
Creating video directory for freevo
mkdir: `': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing freevo (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
freevo
3. mythtv user is part of the freevo group, but the script doesn't
recognize it as above:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ id
uid=1001(mythtv) gid=1001(mythtv) groups=24(cdrom),25(floppy),
29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),104(scanner),121(fuse),
123(freevo),1001(mythtv)
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
--Andrew
