Re: mythtv-0.27/0.28 for EL6

Hi all,

Any comments on the original questions in this thread reg. mythtv?:
--

Are there any plans to create 0.27 and 0.28 rpms for EL6?
Are there any issues that would make it difficult/impossible?
--

I would really appreciate to have 0.27 working on EL6. As of now, my
mythfrontend (v0.27-109-gcb744f8 on Fedora 20) cannot be used with my
backend hosted on Centos 6. The DB schema versions are apparently too
different.

Best wishes for a happy new year to all of you.
Kenneth
