So this bug has actually been fixed since as of 0.22 all the xmltv
handling happens directly in the mythtv-setup GUI.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: mythtv-backend

Hi,

When running mythtv-setup and selecting 3 "Videokilder" (in norwegian, I suspect "Videosources" in english). I select the schedule source (xmlno, I've called it). And then there is a setup screen to select what grabber to use to get these data.  i select "Norway (xmltv)" (tv_grab_no) or "Norway (beta) (xmltv)" (tv_grab_no_gfeed). Then select "Ferdig" (finished/done). Then comes a progress bar saying more or less "Please wait while MythTV fetches the list of channels.".
This progressbar hangs at 50%. This is because the command that is run:

  tv_grab_no --config-file '/home/mythtv/.mythtv/xmlno.xmltv' --configure

wants to be interactive and ask about datasources, channels I want and so on. I see that the command runs on a pty, but it's not any terminal I have opened.

Once I switch away from the mythtv desktop in the openbox window manager I can find the terminal in the menu for Desktop1 and go to it. If my mouse ever leaves the window it goes behind mythtv-setup.

This terminal should perhaps have its stay-on-top property set.

Regards,
  Nicolai
