Yech. Spoke too soon. Every time mfdb runs now, whether automatically or by
hand, it runs for /hours/ and then terminates with the dreaded:
FillData, Error: xmltv returned error code 256
...it then gets the database management all wrong and collapses without
apparently doing anything constructive.
There is /very/ little to be gleaned about xmltv error codes via google, and
/none/ on the xmltv wiki. Anyone any clues? I'm guessing on a possible perl
library conflict here, but I really don't know. All the directories and files
accessed appear to have the right owners, groups and permissions.
