Yes... I got SVN to compile properly and it works great. Here are the instructions to get it up and running.

1.. Remove ALL QT3 libraries with synaptic or apt.
2. Set the repositories from stable to unstable.
3. Install the following QT4 libraries.
libavahi-qt4-1
libavahi-qt4-dev
libqt4-core
libqt4-dev
libqt4-gui
libqt4-qt3support
libqt4-sql
4. Make sure that you complete a make distclean for mythtv, mythplugins, myththemes.
5. Do the following command to remove some makefiles that don't get cleaned up after a make distclean.
find . -name "Makefile" -exec rm -f {} \;
5. Delete all references of libmyth* from /usr/lib. I actually had multiple references of older version of mythtv. Like .20, .21 and .22. If not, then compiling will fail.


That's it.

Hmm, followed your guide, and it worked with just mythtv alone, but when I compile and install mythplugins, I get these errors, and it crashes on startup. (Right after "pre scaling images")

Ok, to answer my own question, configuring with --disable-mythphone did the trick =)

go to /usr/lib and delete all the libmyth* files. For some reason it going to the old objects when compiling. It will resolve your libqt-mt.so.3. That what the older SVN was compiled against.

For those searching the forums who are having problems compiling svn..

I also had to add these packages. Was getting some opengl errors during "make"

Code:
apt-get install libqt4-opengl libqt4-opengl-dev


And had to add this additional package when the backend couldn't connect to the mysql db

Code:
apt-get install libqt4-sql-mysql

Even without HD-PVR or VDPAU, my instructions should still work for compiling SVN under R5.5. If you are using R6, the packages and PKGBUILD are in the repo.

SVN builds are in the R6 repo.

mythfrontend just Segentation Faults

mythtv-setup runs perfectly fine.

Check your frontend log file for error messages. Make sure you are configured to run with one of the default mythtv themes (not the KnoppMyth one). If not, you will need to manually change the setting in your database (or use mythweb to do so).

The mythfrontend logfile did not show any problems. Which theme can I use? Right now I'm using blootube under the "Theme" setting in MythWeb. Mythtv-Setup is working fine though, so i don't get what is causing the problem. I also made sure the ThemePainter is set to qt.

I also checked to see if mythwelcome would run. It ran without any issue.

just the frontend has a problem. I did try sudo pacman -S mythtv-svn mythtv-extras-svn again to see if maybe something was not installed properly. Still the same problem with mythfrontend.

Without the addition of any more debug info, I don't have any suggestions. There is no backtrace in your frontend log or on the command line (if you ran it from there)?

It looks like it's grabbing the wrong theme. I changed the value with Mythweb, but when using opengl for ThemePainter it alway changes the value in the database back to GANT. So I think I have an invalid theme setup for mythfrontend, but I can't change it. I tried to install mysql-gui from pacman repo, but it does not look like it's in there.

I also deleted the themecache in the /home/.mythtv. This had the cache of GANT when I use the opengl setting. Ummmm.... what is the mysql command to change the setup theme for mythfrontend?

There is no real debug information from running the frontend from the command line. Tries to load, segment faults. Trying to find out where the mythfrontend would get it's information about it's theme to use other than the database.
