I *always* keep a list of any changes suggested by the package manager
when doing an upgrade. Ignoring them has caused huge problems on this
list. Too late now, but next time keep track. You should also have seen
the option to view the differences between the old and new version of
the file. Sometimes, it makes no difference to MythTV. Others, it can
erase changes you've made to get it to work. Sounds like you lucked out.

Try this: ls -ld /etc/*.dpkg* and see if anything that prints out rings
a bell with you. Then look at the differences between the files.
The filename you rejected would probably have the word 'new' in it.
