myth and gentoo work together beautifully :-) The only problems I've run into are when I tried to install myth cvs without emerging it - it copied the include files into /usr/local/mythtv and it was messing up future installs once those includes changed. Once I cleaned those out it was fine again.
Just using the standard ebuilds works great, as does the -cvs ebuilds (after *slight* modification for a problem that may have just been me). nuvexport works great, all the dependencies are also ebuilds I believe. mythweb fits in with the gentoo webapp plan, however convoluted it may be and works fine. Ivtv ebuild works fine as well. - Jeff On Thu, 24 Mar 2005 11:01:25 -0800, Richard J.
