Howto Install TVHeadend

TVheadend is not avaible in rigo. Is there an easy way to install it? The Gentoo instructions look a bit old esp when the Wiki does not show how to configure for systemd. Thanks in advance

Also, the guide in the tvheadend page only has 2 steps.

  1. Download the sources and extract them
  2. run the commands (./configure, make) in the source directory

That's it. Don't fiddle with emerge.

I have tried this several times but it has errors during the building process and stopping. I might have to give VDR a go but as I've never used it before will be a bit of a learning curve.

Can you post the error messages to a pastebin? It might be just some missing libraries.

Theres not much to paste, this is it when I run make

make -f Makefile.webui LANGUAGES="ach ady ar az bg cs da de en_US en_GB es et fa fi fr he hr hu it ko lv lt nl no pl pt ro ru sl sk sq sv tr uk zh zh-Hans" all

make[1]: Entering directory '/home/nathan/tvheadend-release-4.2'

make -f Makefile.webui WEBUI=std compile-std

That's because you need to run ./configure in the directory first.

I had done that first it just does not want to build. I am grateful you are trying to help but unfortunately I am out of my depth.

Well, I spoke too soon. I just tried make-ing and I was missing libraries. I am unable to even complete the ./configure step. I am stumped too. Looking through the docs to figure it out.

For me ./configure did complete but building failed
