Sorry for the massive delay getting back to you.  I actually have no 
hard details on .18.1 being broke in breezy.  I only recalled a while 
back reading on these mail threads that some people seemed to be having 
problems getting 18.1 from the repository because myth .18.1 required 
some updated libraries which themselves were not offered in the 
repositories.  I can't remember what the libraries were.  Basically the 
build of mythtv works fine I understand but that it would not install 
without forcing it because a couple of libraries in the repos hadn't 
been updated yet.  No doubt that was even fixed before we started this 
thread though!
