If you want 0.19 and are running KnoppMyth you can:
A)  Have some patiences, as a new release w/ 0.19-fixes (and other
goodies) is a few days away.

B)  Compile MythTV yourself.  KnoppMyth already includes all the deps,
so you should have no problems compile MythTV.  All you have to do is
follow the simple directions in the MythTV docs.
