metadata lookup not working on Debian

Post #1 of 3 (155 views)

I'm testing Master on both Ubuntu 22.04 and Debian 12. I've noticed that in
recent days I've started getting error exit 128 on Metadata lookup on shows
that normally work fine but only on Debian 12.

As a test as user mythtv I ran:

mythmetadatalookup --refresh-all
on both systems and on Ubuntu I see:

2023-07-01 06:32:20.472224 I Testing grabbers and metadata sites for

2023-07-01 06:32:21.281956 N MythMetadataLookup run complete.

But on Debian 12 I see:

2023-07-01 06:31:04.562001 I Movie grabber not functional. Aborting this
run.

The Ubuntu mythtv is from the ppa:mythbuntu/34.
On Debian 12 the packages are built following the wiki:
https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Installing_MythTV_on_Debian

the changes I used for Master were:

cd ~/build
git clone https://github.com/MythTV/packaging.git
cd packaging/deb
./build-debs.sh master

It's only in the last week that I've noticed the lost of the Metadata and
the exit 128 code, but only on Debian 12

If you add the --verbose system switch to the command, you'll see the
started and exited couplets. The commands will be similar to this:

/usr/share/mythtv/metadata/Movie/tmdb3.py -v

and you can run that from the command line to see what's failing.

I assumed that it was a package build issue since it worked fine on Ubuntu.
I created a new Debian 12 Minimal server VM and built a current setup of
Master packages. After putting those new packages in my NAS Debian repo, I
apt upgraded my test debian 12 backend and frontend. Now the metadata
lookups work. I requeued all the ones with the exit 128 and now they worked
without error and all had the complete setup of metadata.

So what I've learned is to not trust building packages in the same
directory as the last time. My method which seems to have worked for weeks
is to:
cd ~/build/package/deb/
git pull
./build-debs.sh master

However, something didn't get done correctly in regards to the code that
does the metadata lookup. So I guess the new method is to put:
rm ~/build/*
as the first statement and complete start over. I don't think this will
add more than a minute or 2 to the build process.
