Yeah, I understand, and you are probably right. But mythtv-0.18.1
hasn't been changing. I don't do software so I don't understand the
word 'maintain'. I'm sure it's a drag and this is easier on them. I
just wish the devs would have a bit more compassion for those of use
out here wiht families we're trying to keep happy with these toys! ;-)
Anyway, I just brought down the 0.18 ebuild and built a digest but
it's complaining about missing patches so I'll see if I can't figure
that out.
If this is painful enough I guess they'll force me to upgrade anyway,
won't they? ;-)
Cheers,
Mark
