<pre wrap="" class="moz-quote-pre">Hi
I was thinking of 34.0 to 35.0 in Ubuntu 20.04 this week end , but it
looks like the MythTV 35.0 PPA is not available for Ubuntu 20.04.
So it looks like I will need to Install 24.04.
Because I do this infrequently I need some reminders of the process.
This is my plan , please comment if you foresee problems or know of a
better path:
Install 24.04
Install MythTV Control Panel and let it install MythTV 34.0
Restore the backed up database from Ubuntu 20.04 MythTV 34.0
Question: will this give me a functioning MythTV or will I need to do
some setting up?
Once everything is working I will use MCP to update MythTV to version 35.0
Thanks
