[mythtv] Debian packages 0.7-12

[Mark Pitman]

OK, purging the package and reinstalling fixed the first problem. I had installed and uninstalled before, hoping that it would fix the problem with QT magically ;)

Here's the output of reportbug. I am new to Debian but not linux. Is there some way to test the libqt3-mt-mysql package?
