Odd -- did I give the wrong version? lets double check which version I was
running up to the time of my last post. According to the BTS my last
post was dated 'Mon, 27 Aug 2007 01:28:05 -0400', which means local
time 1:28AM. My system's 'dpkg' log says:
% grep 'status installed scantv' /var/log/dpkg.log.1 /var/log/dpkg.log
/var/log/dpkg.log.1:2007-07-31 01:22:04 status installed scantv
3.95.dfsg.1-4
/var/log/dpkg.log:2007-08-27 02:34:24 status installed scantv
3.95.dfsg.1-5
Apparently I'd upgraded just an hour after writing the message. Maybe
I can downgrade and test it again. Did it, and v3.95.dfsg.1-4 calls
libquicktime:
% dlocate -s scantv | grep Vers
Version: 3.95.dfsg.1-4
# more detailed 'strace'
% strace -s 256 -fFv -o /tmp/scantv_1-4.log scantv -h

Attached is a more detailed 'strace -s 256 -fFv -o /tmp/scantv.log
scantv -h', as well as the 'strace' for v3.95.dfsg.1-4.

Not unless it's easy, where "easy" means "having small source code
requirements". A dialup ISP connection's low bandwidth sometimes
makes compiling a small C code package difficult; at least in cases
where the code needs large libraries, header files, etc. (Running
'strace' with options to increase the level of detail is easy.)
