[mythtv-users] Can I safely do a Ubuntu upgrade to keep 9.10 current?

[Brent Bolin]

I want to keep my current o/s release up to date.  Fear doing an
upgrade.  I am just not ready to upgrade to .23

Is there anything to worry about as long as I Don't run `apt-get dist-upgrade`

Looks to me like the upgrade wants to upgrade mythbuntu-repos


I did a `apt-get dist-upgrade` on one of my front ends and it upgraded
mythtv to .23 witch won't work with my back end server.  When I did
the upgrade I was under the impression that mythtv wouldn't be
upgraded unless I set the option in o/s myth control center.

Any input would be appreciated.
