Fixed this in Ubuntu 10.04 by adding Debian Squeeze to Synaptic
repository like so

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

Updating and the searching for XMLTV, selected xmltv 0.5.57.3, which
then selected following dependencies

libxmltv-perl_0.5.57-3, xmltv-gui_0.5.57-3, xmltv-util_0.5.57-3

Applied all and XMLTV updated correctly and FreeGuide-TV now works.

Removed repository from Synaptic.

Why haven't  the files been added to the Ubuntu repository yet?

It should not be necessary to put up this sort of problem with a LTS
release!

Bug description:
Binary package hint: xmltv

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.
$ 

Has been fixed upstream, not yet in debian.
