I just wanted to give a heads-up in case anyone was thinking about
upgrading to Fedora 29 Beta. For some reason, I get itchy when there is a
new release and I like to get the upgrade over with.
I ran into two issues. I would consider one to be current.
1) The initial mythtv-29-22 rpms had an issue with mytharchive. There were
references to "Requires" mkisofs and cdrecord. One might have issue when
doing a dnf system-upgrade. I changed these in the spec file to
genisoimage and wodim, rebuilt the rpms and the dependency issues were
fixed.
Rpmfusion has since released mythtv-29-23 rpms and they are in the testing
repository. I'd say just reinstall the mythtv, mytharchive and
mythtv-plugins rpms if they have issues when upgrading. I may have
misspelled their names. They installed fine.
2) I had some references to innodb in my /etc/my.cnf.d configuration file.
mariadb 10.3 would not start. I commented those out and things seem okay.
I'll report back if I run into any more issues. I've had good luck with
other services so far. I had an issue with Kodi and LIRC and I posted my
fix on the RPMFusion bug tracker (had to add lirc-devel as a "Requires" in
the spec file). I haven't experienced anything as problematic as the GCC
upgrade to 8.x that occurred with F28. After the mysql tweak, Mythbackend
started back up and I've had several successful recordings. FWIW, I have a
HDHomerun Prime and a nVidia 760 GTX and I'm running XFCE.
Good luck if you try it. As they say, take a backup because if you break
it, you bought it.
