And most importantly, make a backup of your 0.21-fixes database

wget 
'http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/programs/scripts/database/mythconverg_backup.pl?format=txt' 
-O mythconverg_backup.pl
chmod 755 mythconverg_backup.pl
echo "DBBackupDirectory=/home/mythtv" > ~/.mythtv/backuprc
./mythconverg_backup.pl

(edit DBBackupDirectory location as desired) and make sure you keep that 
backup somewhere that your distro's backup script won't delete it.
