NOTE - You should only do this if you grabbed and/or installed R4V4 before Cecil updated it with these packages tonight (2004.06.02). If I understood his announcemnet correctly, newer versions will already include these updates.
Start up a shell session (ssh or xterm) and logon as root.
Code:
mythbackup
DO NOT SKIP THE STEP ABOVE OR GIANT GREEN SLIME COVERED MONSTERS WILL EAT YOUR HEAD!!!
For the vi phobic...
Code:
cat <<EOF >>/etc/apt/sources.list
# KnoppMyth 0.15.1 patch debs
deb ftp://ftp.rdt1.org/From/KnoppMyth/updates ./
EOF
# KnoppMyth 0.15.1 patch debs
deb ftp://ftp.rdt1.org/From/KnoppMyth/updates ./
EOF
Upgrading live servers is usually a bad idea, as they might be doing something else at the time, like updating the DB. Safer to shut them down...
Code:
/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop
/etc/init.d/apache stop
/etc/init.d/apache stop
Code:
apt-get update
Code:
apt-get install mythtv-i686-lirc mythmusic-i686 mythvideo-i686 mythnews mythweb
I saw some funky error messages here...

They seem harmless however...
Code:
/etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start
/etc/init.d/apache start
/etc/init.d/gdm restart
/etc/init.d/apache start
/etc/init.d/gdm restart
Quick, slick, and smooth as silk. As usual KnoppMyth rules! (As does Cecil!)
Note that I have an Athlon XP, so i686 is correct for me. YMMV. You may also want to use the other mirror to spread the load.
If you are upgrading an older system you may also need to change the database password from "q2dUSRDq" to "mythtv".
Corrected several minor oversights mentioned below... I actually did the stops, but missed them as I was scrolling back and forth through my command history to cut and paste them...
