I did reactivate the PPA, and it still didn't upgrade. In your current trusty PPA builds, your version number ends with "0ubuntu0mythbuntu3". In Precise, which is older, it ends with "0ubuntu0mythbuntu4". So when trusty and precise have builds based on the same git version, the Precise version sorts newer than trusty, which is clearly not correct. - Marc -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to mythtv in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1446617 Title: Version numbers in ppa packages don't support ubuntu upgrades Status in mythtv package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: The version numbers you use for your PPA packages don't include the ubuntu release version they're built for, so if I'm running a current ppa version and then upgrade ubuntu (12.04 -> 14.04 in my case), mythtv isn't upgraded to the version built for the new ubuntu version correctly. You need to include the ubuntu version before the datestamp/git part.
