Please checkout the mrvn branch and build that. You will have to add
some pkg-lists and media-lists but as owner of a powerpc your probably
more qualified to adapt the i386 ones to powerpc tha I am.
So far only Sven Luther did one testrun and I fixed the bugs he
reported (i think). I waiting for feedback. Given the old build script
doesn't seem to work anymore getting the new one under way seems
important.
