Thanks Marc,

Although seems like the 0.23.1 files are missing... I finally figured out
how to install a "deb" package from CLI and then tried to update.

Now using the "Update Manager" but failed too.. and there is a big problem I
see with Ubuntu about "clicking" buttons which doesn't work in VNC when they
pop up or with a local mouse if the update occurs during mythtv being up.
Not been the greatest experience with Ubuntu so far compared to
Fedora/Centos.
