    <p>I decided to do the 16.04 upgrade today. The winning streak was
      destroyed. Apparently, mysql doesn't like being upgraded from 5.5
      to 5.7, and nothing would run. I reverted back to my 14.04 (thanks
      clonezilla) and all is well. I'll have to upgrade mysql to 5.6
      first.</p>

                I just upgraded a MythBunbtu 12.04 backend to 14.04. The
                upgrade went incredibly smooth, no issues and no errors.
                I'll leave it here for the day and try a 16.04 upgrade
                tomorrow. If that works, I'll move from 0.27 to 0.28.<br>

                ps: I had to tell someone about the clean upgrade...
                it's the first clean one on this server (started at
                8.04, I think), and the wife wouldn't understand.<br>

              I just went from .27 to 29 on 14.04. Again, flawless. Wow!<br>
              <br>
              Tomorrow, I try to get up to 16.04, then I don't have to
              worry about it again for a few more years.<br>

            <div>I use Kubuntu, and am currently on 14.04. I upgraded to
              .29 a couple of months ago and only had a few small issues
              with metadata lookups that were fairly easily solved. I
              would have upgraded to 16.04 but I saw this:</div>

            <div>I don't know if I'm the averageĀ  user, but I didn't
              feel like dealing with it at the time and 14.04 is working
              fine for me. I have about 7 systems that would need
              upgrading, 2 with tons of customizations way beyond myth
              that I have running. I'll pass for now. Might try
              upgrading one of my low priority frontend only systems
              over the holidays just to see how it goes.</div>
