IMHO the tv_grab_na_dd change is too small to justify an XMTLV release, much less a packaged release.  If you would like it on your system, I suggest 
you install from source (which would be trivial since the package already installed all the prerequisites), or even just replace the tv_grab_na_dd file.

Heck, just edit it on your system. here's a diff (comment only changes removed).  Mostly what I did was move the question into the "auto-config" if 
statement (it was right after it).
