Posted my notes at https://app.box.com/s/c36i4nmocdwkllxvkc9j2l5bxb7vegeu   (PDF format)  so you/others could see what I thought I should be doing.  Basically Part 1 is using the 'without Ansible' option to install (what I'm guessing are the) dependencies, then compiling the source code.  Got an error message which seems to say I am missing dependencies but can't because they're not installable.

Barry as per the wiki, https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Build_from_Source <https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Build_from_Source>, building from src is quick (1/2 hour) and easy (you doan need toucha da buttons)

$ git checkout fixes/31

There are several google install LAMP on ubuntu. Do so.
Install the timezone stuff and the basic mysql ie (google mythtv timezone)
$ sudo mysql < mc.sql
you find that in the src tree.
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install

All done, so enjoy, and mythweb works once you change the ../mythweb/data permissions. I use 1777 and the gods will protest so the www user is www-data. I used /var/www/html/mythweb. IIRC you need to add the rewrite module.
