And since mythtv-setup has an actual UI, with which to ask you if you
really want to upgrade the schema and to give you information in the
event of failures (i.e. failure to create a pre-upgrade backup, etc.), I
highly recommend you run mythtv-setup immediately after upgrading from
one version to another, and before running mythbackend on the master
backend host after upgrading.
