This package replaces the previous 'mythtv' AUR package. It has been renamed to comply with Arch's VCS package guidelines.

I hope to update the various mythplugins AUR packages soon

@jfabernathy, thanks. do you have the three qt5 packages that i referenced just below and icu installed. ? i did just find i had an old qt5-webkit installed which has been replace a while ago. so i removed that. plan to backup and test again later. thanks jim for some leads on this

@glen77 FYI a cleanbuild of mythtv-git with yay on an updated system worked for me this morning.

i update all arch pkgs weekly. today after update mythtv-git would not build seems to be failing on something qt5 related with mythfrontend. i do image backups beforehand so i restored and its running. as far as i can tell the things that it might be are: linux kernel to 6.4, qt5-base, qt5-webengine, qt5-locations. were the only ones i could see in the upgrade list.

if anyone has same and has solved or has another idea. please post. i am going to upgrade just kernel and see if it will build.

update: i upgraded kernel only and the package built. and also i noticed the icu package was another that had updated before i rolled back.

@JohnLBergqvist Great! Thanks for your actions :)
Merge request accepted.

@Antiz I have created a mythtv-git package essentially on top of this one, which corrects the issues here, including the versioning system, using the stable fixes/33 branch. @delx is still MIA, so I've filed a request to merge this package into mythtv-git. I suppose I could create a mythtv-unstable-git which uses the unstable master branch instead, but I don't know if there's much demand for that.

@JohnLBergqvist Alright, thanks for the explanations. That's indeed not typical and it makes proper packaging harder unfortunately...

Regardless of this "atypical branch scheme" thing, this package is still a VCS one in its current state and quoting such packages as "stable" is not an option (from an Arch/AUR point of view).
This PKGBUILD should either switch to tagged release sources (a discussion can be set with upstream about having more frequent tagged releases in order to include recent critical fixes) or be renamed mythtv-git.
