In case anyone is thinking of doing the same.
Took the plunge this morning and did an in place upgrade of Mythbuntu 14.04.1
to 16.04.1.
The install went smoothly and currently recording a random program to make
sure the tuners loaded OK. Seems fine.
Things that didn't work:
1. Mythweb didn't work off the bat - had to install the php-db package to make
it work. Once I had figured out that it seems to be OK.
2. Plexmediaserver worked fine but plexWatch web interface didn't. You need to
install the packages php-sqlite3 and php7.0-sqlite3 and then that seems to be
OK.
3. KODI - THIS DOESN'T WORK. You can't install without removing your entire
mythtv install...
Kodi requires libtag1v5 while mythtv requires libtag1c2a. If you try to
install libtag1v5 then you are asked to remove all the following packages:
libmyth-0.28-0 libtag1-vanilla libtag1c2a mytharchive mythbrowser mythbuntu-
bare-client mythbuntu-desktop mythgallery mythmusic mythnetvision mythnews
mythtv mythtv-backend mythtv-backend-master mythtv-common mythtv-database
mythtv-dbg mythtv-frontend mythtv-theme-mythbuntu mythtv-transcode-utils
mythweather mythweb
Haven't yet found a work around for this yet.
