Bug Description

Binary package hint: mythtv

The files:

/usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_backup.pl
/usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_restore.pl

are currently provided in the package mythtv. The problem is:

* these scripts are only ever used by mythbackend.
* mythtv depends on the frontend (and therefore pulls that in) so you don't want to install the mythtv meta-package
* You can easily have a working backend without install the mythtv meta-package

Therefore, these two scripts should be in the package mythtv-backend

summary: - mythconverg_restore.pl and mythconverg_backup.pl should be in myth-
+ mythconverg_restore.pl and mythconverg_backup.pl should be in mythtv-
backend

This is already fixed in Lucid:

mythtv (0.22.0+fixes22899-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

 * Update to a snapshot post 0.22 release (r22899).
 * Drop 31_vdpau_profiles.dpatch as it's been merged upstream.
 * Install mythconverg_backup and mythconverg_restore scripts
   in the mythtv-database package rather than mythtv package.
 * debian/control:
   - Drop version number in dependencies to myth* to prevent
     version skew from PPA builds.
   - Build depends on open source libvdpau optionally.
   - Build depends on libxvidcore-dev | libxvidcore4-dev for libxvidcore
     transition happening in lucid. (LP: #486169)
 * Generate a -dbg package so that builds from a PPA can actually
   be useful.
