It turns out that at least one other Debian user has been seeing this.
He graciously gave me an account on his machine to do some debugging.
Initially, I couldn't make anything out of the ordinary happen, but then
I accidentally managed to reproduce the problem by running the latest
tv_grab_na script against an older (0.5.17) version of the XMLTV package
installed to /usr/share/perl5.
I think what happened is that somehow, the xmltv-util package
(containing the grabbers) got upgraded to 0.5.18 but the libxmltv-perl
package (containing /usr/share/perl5/XMLTV) didn't. However, I can't
prove this, because the example machine I had been looking at had been
completely downgraded to 0.5.17 as a temporary fix.
I'm going to change the dependencies in my packages such that a given
version of xmltv-util will always depend on exactly the same release of
libxmltv-perl. That will at least ensure that everything is consistent,
and I hope that it will fix this bug, too.
Thanks for the help,
KEN
