[Bug 544522] Re: [lucid] latest version of Date::Manip breaks tv_grab_uk_rt

 

Changed my mind! Fresh install of 10.04 and then, following Andy's
advice downloaded xmltv-util_0.5.56+cvs20100328-1_all.deb, but could not
install via GUI installer or command line due to unmet dependencies.

dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of xmltv-util:
 xmltv-util depends on libxmltv-perl (= 0.5.56+cvs20100328-1); however:
  Version of libxmltv-perl on system is 0.5.56-1.
dpkg: error processing xmltv-util (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 xmltv-util

So to aviod dependency problems added debian Squeeze 6 repository:

 deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian squeeze main

to software sources

Got the usual signature verify error and used instructions in
thishttp://gnuru.org/article/1465/debian-public-keys-error to fix

Ran sudo apt-get update, then followed with upgrade. This upgraded the
following:

Get: 1 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ squeeze/main xmltv 0.5.56+cvs20100328-1 [179kB]
Get: 2 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ squeeze/main xmltv-gui 0.5.56+cvs20100328-1 [235kB]

Then disabled the Debian repository.

However, I'm still not getting xmltv data in Mythbuntu I'm running the
United Kingdom/ Republic of Ireland (Radio Times) (xmltv) listings
grabber. is this the correct one for the uk?

The latest version of Date::Manip (6.04) causes tv_grab_uk_rt in lucid xmltv (0.5.56-1) to break:

$ tv_grab_uk_rt
Using old-style config file
XMLTV requires a Date::Manip timezone of +0000 to work properly.
Current Date::Manip timezone is wet.
