Yes, you used configure options that create a broken MythTV build.
Sure, you can now compile your broken build as Mark fixed the bug, but I
just thought I'd send you a message saying that it /will/ be broken so
that you don't waste your time or the list's time sending questions
about why Myth doesn't work (or, worse, waste developer time by
reporting bugs).
Your configure line is /definitely/ breaking mythtranscode--using
--disable-audio-oss on GNU/Linux systems breaks parts of Myth. See:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/184639#184639 and
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/185108#185108 and
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/184868#184868 .
IIRC, using --disable-x11 on GNU/Linux will break other parts of Myth
(preview pixmap generation?).
If you want a broken build, go for it. If you're just trying to get a
lean/mean build, you should really read up on what --disable-oss (and
all other disable flags you're specifying) is doing for you (i.e. read
the MythTV code and read up on what exactly OSS is) and you'll see that
you're going about it the wrong way.
Chances are that a majority of those other disables are also bad ideas.
I have a feeling that you think you're getting the functionality of the
disabled --disable-frontend by selectively disabling things you /think/
are frontend-only things (but aren't). Instead, you're creating a
broken build.
