There are _no_ interdependencies between ivtv 4 and mythtv.  Myth doesn't care 
what version of ivtv you use (as long as it's not pre-1.0).

And again, there's nothing there that requires using the SVN version of Myth.

Why do you keep using the newer version of ivtv as an excuse for this?  It has 
absolutely nothing to do with the version of mythtv in the distro.
