We're actually working on EL6 builds of MythTV and they're actually
already there (at least in the Testing repository) but RPM Fusion
adheres to the Fedora policy of not replacing packages that exist
already (In EL, Fedora EPEL, etc), so progress has been slow. We're
getting close though. The last requirement that hasn't been built yet
is xmltv.

Speaking of which, if you want to build my package you'll need
packages in Fedora EPEL if you don't already have that repo enabled.
