If it is a master backend, is this the package you're looking for?
I'm no packaging guru, but you may have to wait for the next change to
-fixes (so that the package is redistributed with a higher fixes
number and it will want to overwrite the one you have):
$ apt-cache policy mythtv-backend-master
mythtv-backend-master:
Installed: 0.22.0+fixes23426-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu3
Candidate: 0.22.0+fixes23473-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu3
Version table:
0.22.0+fixes23473-0ubuntu0+mythbuntu3 0
500 http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic/main Packages
slave backend is without the -master.
