I just noticed the 0.25.2 tag... Did they announce it? Anyway, I'm
sorry about the hour! What kind of hardware are you building on? I've
got what I would consider a "modest" system (3 core AMD) and the
builds usually take me about 15 minutes.

I've got a 0.25.2 build started now for F16 and if it doesn't run into
any issues I'll try an EL build and make the SRPM available.

Disclaimer: I'm the RPM Fusion mythtv maintainer. :)

Nothing against Axel of course, I've switched between ATRpms and RPM
Fusion several times over the years for various reasons but when I
became a packager for Fedora I ended up at RPM Fusion since Axel is
more of a one man show...  :)

One thing you might have to watch out for is if any of the package
names for the requirements are different. You'll definitely need to
uninstall any atrpms mythtv packages since the sub-package names are
different (last I checked).
