In steps 1 and 2 of "Ubuntu and Mythbuntu Trusty (14.04)" in the wiki 
page, you should download the appropriate packages for ubuntu-xenial. 
What versions did you get? It should have been the versions listed. I 
suspect you downloaded for trusty or some other version. You need to 
download the package for xenial even though you are running trusty.
