[mythtvnz] Upgrade from 34 to 35 in Ubuntu 20.04

[Paul]

So do you disable the MythTV PPA before upgrading the OS?

I also use the Mythbuntu Control Panel and its PPA

My problems on my main Ubuntu (i.e. not the Mythbox) in the past were 
probably due to enabled PPAs

Second question is is there any MythTV setup required after the upgrade 
or is it ready to go?

I might give it a shot . My Mythbox has a second system SSD that I clone 
the main SSD onto as a backup at regular intervals . So if I run into 
problems I'll just switch to the backup.
