Hey, that's a pretty good idea.  Make .debs for people to be able to
easily install the test version.  that lowers the barrier to entry for
people to become testers, and they can get the latest trunk through
automatic updates every week or so without having to think about it.

I've been meaning to contribute to mythtv but got sidetracked with
debian packaging for a little while, so now I know the bare basics of
how to make an Ubuntu .deb...  coincidence?  If you need a partner in
crime, shoot me an email.
