Description adalsaady 2010-01-31 09:44:43 UTC
I got Failed to execute child process "me-tv-" (No such file or directory)

everything is ok

I have my channels but when I want to run one of them I got this error

and when clicked on ctrl+up or down to change the channel ... it completely crashes
thanks

Comment 1 Solomon Peachy 2010-02-11 20:09:27 UTC
This is apparently due to some sort of packaging error; for some reason me-tv's gconf schema isn't being loaded or initialized properly.  I'm not sure why. This page has a bit more info:

You can temporarily work around this problem by doing this:

gconftool-2 -t string -s /apps/me-tv/engine_type xine

Comment 2 Solomon Peachy 2010-02-11 20:21:31 UTC
it appears that the %pre/%post/%preun scripts aren't calling gconftool-2 to load up the schema file.

Created attachment 390345 [details]
Updated specfile with fixed gconf pre/postinstall scripts

I've attached an updated specfile that fixes this problem through the use of proper %pre, %post, and %preun scriptlets.

I've rebuilt this on fc12-i686 and it seems to work okay for me.  I can supply a set of i686 and x86_64 binaries if desired, but I'd prefer to see an official build/update based on this specfile filter down the update chain...

Comment 4 Zarko (grof) 2010-02-12 11:53:33 UTC
OK guys.

I will correct this.

Thanks for resolving, Solomon ;)
