Use the latest release+fixes.

So you want 0.27+fixes.

This is what you get if you use mythbuntu repos. Anyone on *buntu with
mythtv should do the same.

That is basically the stable version plus fixes that have been
backported from the dev version.

git master is called 0.28 in mythbuntu repos. Don't go there as you'll
be running experimental alpha/beta code.

Once 0.28 is actually released, change mythbuntu repos to 0.28 and
you'll get 0.28+fixes, and in the repo 0.29 will be master.
