[ubuntu-mythtv] How to compile

[Gunnar Strand]

Hi list,

Background: I am having problems with mythbackend not setting up listening
on the configured port 6543. It opens 6544 and 6549, and I have tried adding
the server host ip to /etc/hosts (it was missing) and setting up
LocalHostName, but no dice.

I want to reproduce the current version on my system and just replace the
mythbackend binary with my own. I want to add some traces to the backend,
but I have been unable to find any documentation on how to compile the
source. I got this far:

$ sudo apt-get build-dep mythtv
[...]
$ apt-get source mythtv
[...]
$ cd mythtv-0.24.0+fixes.20110416.9ba3ece/mythtv
$ ./configure
Error, no aligned memory allocator but SSE enabled, disable it or use
--enable-memalign-hack.
[...]
$ ./configure --enable-memalign-hack
ERROR! You must have FreeType installed to compile MythTV.
[...]
$ sudo apt-get install libfreetype6
[...]
libfreetype6 är redan den senaste versionen. [is already latest version]
0 att uppgradera, 0 att nyinstallera, 0 att ta bort och 0 att inte
uppgradera.
$ sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev
[...]
libfreetype6-dev är redan den senaste versionen. [is already latest version]
0 att uppgradera, 0 att nyinstallera, 0 att ta bort och 0 att inte
uppgradera.

So, is there a description on how to recreate the version of mythtv that I
have installed? Which options were given to "configure" and which were given
to "make"? If anybody should be able to shed some light on this issue, I
guess this is the place to ask :-)?
