IIRC, the sources are always unpacked from the tarball in /var/spool/lunar into /usr/src so you will lose any changes you make in /usr/src, and if you configure, build and install manually from /usr/src then the lunar package management system probably won't be able to track which files have been installed. Similarly, if you make changes in the main moonbase, they will be overwritten when you next run lin moonbase or lunar update.
What you could do is:
(a) build and install in some directory under $HOME using configure --prefix but then lunar won't know about it and you will need to track updates yourself;
(b) create a zlocal copy using lvu edit mythtv and figure out whether you can correct the path information in the build scripts;
(c) report the failure on the bugtracker and hope someone has time to look at it soon.
I notice that the version of mythtv in moonbase is out of date, and that mythtv-0.21 was released in March 2008. Maybe you could try to update to the new version in your zlocal copy, and if successful, submit your update to the development team using lvu submit. See the Module Submission page for details.
I have no experience of mythtv, nor do I have the hardware to be able to try it, but maybe one of the devs will be able to help you further. |
