Last commit was on 2014-03-21, more than 6 years ago now. The project is
in the "Old projects not maintained anymore at LinuxTV.org" section of
linuxtv.org.

The homepage https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/LinuxTV_dvb-apps has
not been updated since 2013-02-16.

It seems they have been replaced by a set of utilties in the v4l-utils
tree: https://git.linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git/tree/utils at least
regarding the scanning utilities, and by a repository dedicated to
hosting the scnan tables: https://git.linuxtv.org/dtv-scan-tables.git/

dvb-apps still has a few utilities that are not avilable elsewhere, like
dvbdate, to set the clock from the DTV signal, for example.

TBH, I lost most interest in these DTV-related packages since the time I
added them, 6 to 8 years ago now, and I no longer use them anymore, so I
am not really sure how they relate to each other now...

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
