Mythtv Frontend
 
I want to run Mythfrontend but Manjaro's repos do not show it.
I was told that Arch Linux has MythTV but I cannot find how to access the AUR from Octopi.
I downloaded the MythTV source but hit a dependency when I tried to configure it. 'qtwebkit headers not found'.
Whatever looked as though might contain them didn't.
Any advice?

You access the AUR with 'yaourt'. It does have mythtv but be aware it takes a long tim to install.
Try
Code:

yaourt --help
although I'm sure you would know that.

Thank you.

Weirdly manjaro bundles the whole lot together. I only needed mythfronend for a remote mythtv client.
Anyway it all compiled but when I try to run mythfrontend I get a dependency error:

error while loading shared libraries: libmythtv-0.27.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I can only find rpms on the www. Seem odd.

You could try a symlink to the libmyth file you have. I think the standard myth install in arch(manjaro) is version 29.0 now so if you have /usr /lib/libmythtv-29.0.so you can try
Code:

ln -s /usr/lib/libmythtv<yournewversion>.so /usr/lib/libmythtv-0.27.so.0
That may work but I haven't tried it.
