[mythtv-users] major regressions in 0.22

That is one of the reasons you shouldn't limit yourself to the
packages in the standard Ubuntu repositories. You will be better off
using the Mythbuntu repositories. That way you can have whatever
combination of .21/.22 with 9.04/9.10 you want. Also the packages in
the standard repositories are usually very out of date. They don't
have all of the fixes that have been added to the x-fixes branch. I
highly recommend you switch to using the mythbuntu daily builds
repository to get the last from the fixes branch:
