[mythtv-users] Migrating database from 0.18 to 0.19 (SQL hacking?)

 	Urgh!  I guess that's a way, but I'm *TRYING* to do this the easy 
way... :)  Last time I rolled over a new machine, I went from a FC-based, 
partial atrpms, partial compiled system to knoppmyth (to make it easy... 
ha!).  After slow response, and unexplained crashes, bugs, and broken 
recordings, with that system I'm finally going back to more or less 
following Jarod's guide with a vanilla FC box and atrpms.

 	In other words, it'll be rather difficult to abuse yum to force an 
older version of mythtv on the FC5 box.  If that's the only way, I could 
go that route, but it's certainly unpleasant.
