There is a naming issue in the latest mythtv-suite package, whereby
the package is referencing mythplugin and not mythplugins (the actual
package name). It should be possible to update mythtv by using apt-get
with the main 18.1 package names instead, as all dependencies should
still be taken care of. If you're more adventurous you can download
the mythtv-suite spec file, edit it, and make a new package.
