All this excitement over a little mistake.  Isaac, I truly appreciate what 
you've started with MythTV.  It is _the way_ I watch TV.  However, I don't 
appreciate your tone in this thread.  I didn't just pull random version of 
SVN to use with my latest release.  Following the directions on 
svn.mythtv.org, I did the following: 

svn co http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/branches/release-0-18-fixes/mythtv 

Was I wrong in my zeal to try and include the latest "stable" release with 
of MythTV with KnoppMyth? 

In packaging MythTV for KnoppMyth, there _are_ no additional dependencies 
other than what it needs (Thanks to Matt for the original diffs).  MythTV in 
KnoppMyth is _no_ different than MythTV in any other distro.  We simply try 
to make everything easy to install (Linux, MythTV, NFS, Samba, Apache, Xine, 
MPlayer, nuv2disc, etc...).  One can install KnoppMyth, remove the packaged 
debs and compile MythTV from source if one chooses. 

Now for giggles, I tried the following a few minutes ago: 

svn co http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/trunk/mythtv 

Then in a different directory: 

svn co http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/branches/release-0-18-fixes/mythtv 

Low and behold, they both checked out the _same_ version (7689).  Perhaps 
that is the root of the problem? 

Warm regards, 

Cecil
