They are ALL older on the master backend. On the new frontend, they are
mostly 134 and 139 which seems to match the yum check-updates |grep myth.

On my older frontend (the one that worked ok), I have started upgrading (yum
install package) each individual package and it seems to be working but I
thought that was what was supposed to happen when I did yum install
mythtv-suite...
