Googling didn't bring up anything specific other than a few others
having the problem.  This ubuntu post [1] has you editing some files but
you shouldn't have to in gentoo.  I'm running myth as well, what version
are you running?  I'm looking at the schedules direct page right now [1]
but I can't find anything.  They are the ones that supply the xmltv data.

Thanks for your answer.

I don'ẗ think the ubuntu solution apply, since mythfilldatabase is
concerned with the line:

348 my $doc = $xml->parse_string($xmldata);

I'm using mythtv-0.21_p19961-r2 and xmltv 0.5.50 and i don't understand
if the problem lies within mythtvs mythfilldatabase or in xmltv. I have
rebuilt all dependencies. Downgraded xmltv and mythtv with the same
results.

It worked june 15, since then i gave ubuntu a try since nuvexport and
ffmpeg does not work in gentoo, it didn't in ubuntu either
(mythfilldatabase worked thou), reinstalled gentoo, and now i have this
problem.
