Each of those packages carry the {u} marker, so they should be replaced by
other packages, and are no longer in use.
Please do yourself a favour and backup important data anyway before you setup
a build environment.
I made some adjustments to the runvdr script:
export VDR_LANG="$LANG"
export LC_ALL="$VDR_LANG"
export LC_COLLATE="$VDR_LANG"
export VDR_CHARSET_OVERRIDE="ISO-8859-6"
VDRPRG="/usr/local/src/vdr/vdr-1.7.15/vdr"
# For other options see manpage vdr.1
VDROPTIONS="-w 60 --port=2001 --log=3 \
--config=$HOME/vdr-1.7.15/ \
--video=$HOME/vdr-1.7.15/videos \
--localedir=/usr/local/src/vdr/vdr-1.7.15/locale/ \
--lib=/usr/local/src/vdr/vdr-1.7.15/PLUGINS/lib"
VDRPLUGINS="-P xineliboutput"
# You will need to select your output device plugin if you want
# to use VDR to watch video. For instance, for a "Full Featured"
# DVB card that would be
# VDRPLUGINS="-P dvbsddevice"
VDRCMD="$VDRPRG $VDROPTIONS $VDRPLUGINS $*"
while (true); do
eval "$VDRCMD"
if test $? -eq 0 -o $? -eq 2; then exit; fi
done
It makes no sense to load/unload dvb drivers right now, so let's leave those
code passages aside, you can run it without sudo then.

Hi,
Thanks for your help. I just want make sure if this does not make any conflicts
with my installation of Yavdr 0.2. Because when I run the first command it says:

Need to get 76.9kB of archives. After unpacking 2,671kB will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?]

I haven't had time to take a closer look at this, or even try it myself yet. >From a quick look at it I'm afraid it produces quite a memory leak, because 'Rightstr' is allocated but never deleted. I'm also not sure about the language code "ar". Normally these are all three letter codes, so maybe it should be "ara"?
