I used knoppmyth as my mythtv backend server running latest mythtv .20 svn release-fixes. Here is what I did to get mythtv to compile on arch. This is just mythtv, no plugins or mythweb. I just needed mythtv itself for a remote frontend.
This may be overkill on packages, but this is what I installed first. Some are installed by default.
qt, pyqt, dbus-qt3, gcc3, freetype2, libxft, xorg-server, lame
I needed to do some changes on my particular case to get mythtv to see the qt3 information. You may not have to do this.
cp /opt/qt/mkspecs/linux-g++ /opt/qt/mkspecs/default
ln -s /opt/qt /usr/share/qt3
cd /home/yourusername/svn/mythtv
make clean
./configure ( didn't use any options, I dont have nvidia card so dont use xvmc)
qmake mythtv.pro
make (it took about 45 minutes on my laptop)
make install
edit /etc/ld.so.conf and add /usr/local/lib, save then run ldconfig -v
cd /usr/local/bin
./mythfrontend (it will try to connect to the local db, in my case it wont/doesnt find one)
edit /home/yourusername/.mythtv/mysql.txt and change the db information
now run mythfrontend again.
