Re: [mythtv-users] Any timeframe for 0.18 Debian packages?

FYI, I'm in the same boat as you, but I can report that it's very easy to uninstall your myth debs (also, stop mysql, back up /var/lib/mysql!, start it again), build directly from the myth sources, make install, and later make uninstall when you feel like moving back to the debs. You will need to tweak your startup script (which is fortuitously left over if you did not purge), and you'll have to manually install mythweb.

That's _if_ you feel like moving back. My earlier experience making my own 0.17 debs (during the last lag time between release and package release) made me aware that these are compiled for "i386", which can be a performance issue if you are doing HDTV - maybe even if not.

Hi everybody,

Does anyone have any idea when 0.18 packages for debian will be ready?

I'm currently using 0.17 from http://dijkstra.csh.rit.edu/~mdz, but got bitten
by the 1 hour off with qt3.3.4 problem on the weekend.  So I'm really looking
forward to 0.18 to fix that.  Does anyone know how long it will be before the
packager has time to finish them?  If it will take more than another week,
I'll compile my own, but I'd rather not do that with three different
computers.
