sudo apt-get install mythtv-backend mythtv-dbg mythtv-transcode-utils
libmyth

although I haven't tried updating recently however as per a previous post

https://lists.gt.net/mythtv/users/614724
you'd hope they would have caught up with the backlog by now however last
builds are still from 2017-12-27
https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu/+archive/ubuntu/0.29/+packages

Anthony
