Nick,

 checked my version of libmyth-python and saw the following:


> Version: 2:0.25.0+fixes.20120415.76df8e6-0ubuntu0mythbuntu3

which seems appropriate.

I tried running mythwikiscripts from another frontend machine, running
mythbuntu 11.10, and it gave me the same result, the only option being "0"
to quit.  After seeing that, I ran it on a virtualbox install of ubuntu
11.10, and on that machine, it seemed to work correctly, showing 95
options.  I tried using the script to download the files on this machine,
but none seem to work.  Where is the script supposed to put the files it
downloads?
