Sorry for the second reply. This issue was compounded by a few factors.
Basically it isn't easy to have -repos go from 0.23 to 0.23.1 (it's setup to
easily to go 0.24), and feature freeze is right around the corner giving the
project i'm working on higher priority (as it needs to be done by FF). Once
I fix mythbuntu-repos so that I can easily go to 0.23.1, this issue
shouldn't crop up again.
