compile problems w/Red Hat 8.0

Hi there. After much struggle I finally have xmltv installed and
working. Hint: for those that can't get XML::Twig installed, try
updating libexpat, since 1.95.4 which ships with Red Hat 8 seems to be
broken. freetype and lame didn't fight much at all. QT came installed
on Red Hat but needed to have qt-devel installed to get rid of the
"mkspecs" error (mentioned in the readme). But now I get these errors
when compiling and installing. Here I'm using the latest cvs snapshot
of mythtv, but I get the same error using the 0.6 release. Actually I
get a lot more than that, these are just the last few. Please help,
I've put too much effort into this to fail now.

I look forward to your help

Do you have any note/hints for getting xmltv running under RH8.0? I have
been trying for an hour or so without any luck. If I do a "perl
Makefile.pl" it says that I don't have Tk installed, but if I do an "rpm
-q tk" it tells me that I *DO* have Tk installed. It also spits out a lot
of Unicode errors because for RH8, they decided to go unicode. I'm
totally lost!

Any help would be, er, helpful :)

Sorry, my last post was *supposed to* go to Cedar McKay
<cedarmckay [at] mac> regarding the RH8.0 compile problems...but if anyone
has helpful advice I'll take it!

Thanks,
Jer

Re: compile problems w/Red Hat 8.0 [In reply to]

I finally became annoyed at about 2AM and decided to take the easy way out.

If you *know* (think?) you have everything you need, simply go into your
xmltv src directory, open up Makefile.PL, head to line 57:

my %prereqs
= (
'LWP' => 0,
'XML::Twig' => 0,
'Date::Manip' => 5.4,
'XML::Writer' => 0,
);

--

Yank line 60 ('XML::Twig'). Save... ; perl Makefile.PL ; watch errors for
Date::Manip (UTF problems, seems to be related to the version of perl they
are using in RH 8.0?.. search google.).

make ; make install

--

This will probably break something, for someone, but it works for me. YMMV!

You need that -- is there like an X extensions package or maybe you're missing
a -dev package that you're missing or something?
