<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Anssi Hannula at 19/04/12 18:50 did gyre and gimble:

</I>>><i> Hi,
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> MythTV has (at last!) a new version out. I would like to include this in
</I>>><i> mga2. I appreciate it's late but as a leaf package I think it'll be safe
</I>>><i> enough. It'll be the version I'll likely be personally running here at
</I>>><i> home (as a backport) so I'd prefer it if that was the same one I was
</I>>><i> supporting generally.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> But it's not something I'm massively worried about generally, so if
</I>>><i> people have strong feelings please do make them known.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> I've already ported the mythtv package and the LAME patches. Will do the
</I>>><i> plugins one shortly (I'll need to do this anyway for my own needs so not
</I>>><i> wasted effort).
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Anssi, what do you think about including this in mga2?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> It indeed would be very late for such a change.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> But I would still probably side on the allowing side, due to the sum of
</I>><i> the following reasons (which are not reasons enough on their own):
</I>><i> - maintainer wants to include it and is running it himself anyway, so it
</I>><i> gets good testing and support
</I>><i> - MythTV has major releases very rarely (at least so far), but the
</I>><i> release branches seem to be supported for a long time (unless I
</I>><i> misinterpret their version numbers)
</I>><i> - bugs affecting the upgrade of the distribution are unlikely, since
</I>><i> this is a leaf package
</I>><i> - bugs affecting the installation of the distribution are unlikely,
</I>><i> since mythtv is not part of any default installation
</I>><i> - all bugs can still be fixed with /updates, and mythtv is not part
</I>><i> of any release media AFAICS
</I>><i> - we don't have /backports for providing this afterwards
</I>><i>
</I>><i> However, if other people are against this, I guess it is better not to
</I>><i> do it.
</I>
It seems that there has not been a chorus of disapproval, so I've
committed and requested a push.
Can still revert if someone steps in with a big objection.
Right, I'm done with any freeze version exception requests. I'll be a
good boy from now on :D (probably).
