One for the philosophers:  does not noticing issues mean the issues
don't exist?

Let's just say that you're running in an unsupported configuration...  I
still stand by my recommendation.  Please keep this in mind before
posting questions about "bugs" in MythTV.  :)

On the bright side, though, assuming you don't mark any of the shows to
never autoexpire and/or you manually delete them, you'll eventually be
back to a supported configuration through attrition.
