<br>_______________________________________________</blockquote><div><br>I installed Mythdora 4.0 from scratch, and then ran yum -y upgrade \*myth\* - After that I used the hunt-and-peck method to update the other broken components. I'd come across something that didn't work, upgrade it, and move along (ivtv, mythstream, mythmusic, etc). I had to add some repos using Jarod's guide to upgrade certain pieces. Probably not the best way to upgrade, but it worked for me.
