I'm trying to get mythtv to work on a Debian unstable box, at the smae tiem
I'm trying to get a working mythtv system on a machine installed from
KnoppMyth. At the monent neithe works :-(

On the KnoppMyth system, thee is a utility called "mythtvfilldatabase". I
managed to get it to download litings data (North Amaerica) after I used
apt-get to upgrade the version of xmltv that was installed on the by the
CD, but now when I try to, for example voew live TV, I get an error about
not being able to connect to the backend. I also upgrade a good bit more
stuff suing apt-get, so I think this may be the root cause of this problem,
thus I'm reinstalling from scratch, and plan on upgrading _just_ xmlyv.

Meanwhile on the machine I installed Debian on, I cna seem to find the
,ythtvfilldatabase utility at all. Should this be there? If so, what Debian
packages should it be in? apt-cache search does not seem to find it.
