Mismatched versions in stable release

[chuck_chapman@…]

The versions of MythTV (0.18.1.20050523-1) and the MythTV plugins (0.18.1.20050510-1) in the stable release mentioned on your home page are different from each other so they won't play together.

What are you talking about? There are no such versions of mythtv or the plugins mentioned on the mythtv website.

I didn't mean the version numbers themselves were mentioned on the website -- but on your main page it says:

"If you'd like to get the stable 0.18.2 branch, do this instead:..." blah, blah, blah

If you use the commands specifed there and grab that snapshot of MythTV and its plugins, the versions of MythTV and its plugins don't match. If you get into MythTV and try to run, say, MythWeather?, it complains about libmyth having version 0.18.1.20050523-1 and MythWeather? having version 0.18.1.2005-523-1. Is there a workaround to force MythTV to ignore version numbers??? If not, I'll have to go back to the "official" 0.18.1 release.

Ooops...I meant to say it says MythWeather? has version 0.18.1.20050510-1, which still doesn't match 0.18.1.20050523-1...

That's due to how you compiled things, not anything in myth. You have to recompile everything at the same time if you want matching version numbers.

Go ask for help on the users lists, but this is user error, not a bug.

I grabbed both MythTV and its pluggins at the same time and compiled them both at the same time (well, one right after the other) then make installed them one right after the other. Guess I'll have to find the version numbers and hack them myself...oh well.

No you didn't. At least not correctly.
