When daylight savings shifted the time to daylight time Saturday, MythTV incorrectly reflected the start time of programs shifted by one hour. This problem was caused by a fix to a bug in QT 3.3.4 which broke a work around in MythTV. CVS has been patched to correct this bug but 0.17 has not. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
Created attachment 55294 [details, diff] QDate Patch pulled from CVS updates This is a patch for mythtv-0.17-r1.ebuild attached next.
Created attachment 55295 [details] Ebuild using patch for qdate. Ebuild to use the attached patch.
Created attachment 55318 [details, diff] qdate daylight savings time patch without ~ files Same as patch above, but without the backup files (~) created by the editor.
Someone asked how to use this fix, if you already have a bad set of listings you will have to log into mysql and truncate the program table, then rerun mythfilldatabase after you recompile mythtv. For instance: # /etc/init.d/mythbackend stop # mysql -u mythtv -p mysql> use mythconverg; mysql> truncate table program; mysql> commit; mysql> quit # /etc/init.d/mythbackend start # mythfilldatabase Obviously I am skipping interactive prompts such as password.
Not gonna happen. There's no clean upgrade path for someone just pushing a new -r1 ebuild out. They're going to have to tinker with MySQL tables etc. 0.18 with the fixes will be out in 3 days. Plus I don't have a dev box for 2 weeks. Windows bound.
This is great for those of us willing to tinker. Thanks.
I added -r1 to portage with this patch but left it in package.mask since cardoe wants to wait for 0.18. You can unmask it with /etc/portage/package.unmask or just wait for 0.18...

Anyone in a Daylight Savings zone who, today, does an "emerge mythtv" (which will give them 0.16 unless they want to unmask some stuff) will get an application that is NON-FUNCTIONAL. Can the ebuilds for 0.16 be adjusted to say "I don't work with QT >=3.3.4" ? When I first encountered this problem I masked qt-3.3.4-r2, but then a recent update installed qt-3.3.4-r3. Using PORTDIR_OVERLAY I have determined that altering mythtv-0.16.ebuild to say DEPEND=">=media-libs/freetype-2.0 >=media-sound/lame-3.93.1 ! X? ( >=x11-libs/qt-3.1 <x11-libs/qt-3.3.4 ) directfb? ( dev-libs/DirectFB >=x11-libs/qt-embedded-3.1 ) ... is sufficient to express mythtv's requirements.
Never mind. having a <x11-libs/qt-3.3.4 in the DEPENDS does not solve the problem. Some other fix is needed.
