Comment (by Peter Bennett):

 Could this be due to an incorrect version string? The version string is
 supposed to reflect the "git describe --dirty". When I run "git describe
 --dirty" on v30 I get "v30.0-11-gf11c5aba6e". This pattern does not match
 the string that you have provided (v30.0-26034244e8b). Your string is
 missing the "-11" and the g in front of the haash. My mythbackend on my
 version does not give any of those error messages mentioned above.

 If this is the problem, the build/package process needs to be fixed to use
 the correct version. The build gets the version number from git, or that
 fails, from a version text file in the source tree. Some package processes
 fill in the version text file and may be doing it incorrectly.
