SVN revisions are not bad. SVN trunk is only recommended for people who
read the -dev and -commits lists (which takes a pretty significant
investment of time).
However, SVN 0.2x-fixes branch (where 0.2x corresponds to the released
version) is recommended for use by /all/ distros for packaged versions
of MythTV. Therefore, distros are currently using 0.20-fixes SVN,
but--because of the impended release of 0.21--many have a 0.21-fixes SVN
"bleeding"/"alpha"/... package.
