And we have a winner...moved /usr/lib/mythtv, /usr/include/mythtv and
usr/lib/libmyth*, recompiled, and it finished. Can't test it just yet
(although...I could forward my X session to work...) but I will tonight.
I'm surprised that I didn't have more problems with my compiled binaries
though. I have had a couple of odd issues, but nothing major, or worth
reporting. I'll recompile everything and see how that goes. It could
explain why I can't get XvMC to work though.... :)
Thanks!
