After consenting to that it started the upgrade, which it estimated would take about 30 minutes - it reality it took about an hour. Some things that I was asked during the upgrade:
- It asked about replacing customized /etc/logins.def - I looked at the diff and saw no changes that that warranted keeping the current version, so I told it to go ahead.
- Which services should be restarted to use new linssl libraries, I responded with the default which was "ssh".
- It asked about replacing /etc/mysql/my.cnf - the only change that looked relevant was the "bind-address = 127.0.0.1" line, so I told it go ahead.
- It asked about replacing /etc/modprobe.d/aliases - the only difference appeared to be a line of the form "alias char-major-10-187 irnet" - I told it go ahead.
- It asked about replacing /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf - the only difference appeared to be the line "enable-dbus=yes" - I told it to go ahead.
- It asked about replacing /etc/cups/cupsd.conf - the changes appeared minor and since I no longer have the printer connected I told it go ahead
- The upgrade failed trying to install install libxml-sax-perl - "subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 255". This resulted in failures in libxml-simple-perl, xmltv-util, xmltv-gui, xmltv and mythvideo. More below.
- It asked about replacing /etc/ntp.conf - no differences that mattered to me so I told it to go ahead.
I rebooted. It tried to start up mythtv automatically but complained the autologin user (which is what is used to automatically log into the mythtv account) wasn't a member of the mythtv group. So I logged in as admin and added autologin to the mythtv group.
At this point mythtv seems to be running fine, but the remote isn't working. I re-installed lirc as described here and that solved that problem.
Back to the libxml-sax-perl module, poking around revealed the source of the problem - I actually had three versions of SAX.pm. The one in /usr/share/perl5 seems to have the required bebian method, but all attempts to get the install to use it crapped out for one reason or another. So rather painfully I ended up uninstalling libxml2 and then reinstalling everything that depending on it. Painful and I'm sure there has got to be a better way.
Lastly, apt-get was giving me the following message:
Reading package lists... DoneSo I ran 'apt-get autoremove' to correct.Hmmm, at this point everything seems to be working except for httpd and all of its services (MythWeb, the wiki, etc). Poking around I quickly figured out Apache wasn't installed. So re-installing that came first:
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
libmpich1.0c2 libopenexr2c2a mythmusic libarts1c2a libzzip-0-12 kdelibs4c2a
libfaad2-0 python2.4-dev apache2-utils mythphone mythbrowser tetex-base
fftw2 kdelibs-data mythdvd libapr0 liblualib50 mythgallery libwavpack0
gcc-3.4-base mythgame libossp-uuid13 libsvn0 tetex-bin mythflix
librpcsecgss2 libt1-5 libavahi-qt3-1 mythcontrols php4-common netpbm
libcdaudio1 libnetpbm10 mythweather liblua50 libg2c0 mythnews tex-common
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

#apt-get install apache2When asked if I wanted to keep my current configuration file, I answered yes. At this point httpd was running and working, but my wiki, MythTV and phpadmin weren't. Next step was installing php and phymyadmin
#apt-get install php5
...
# apt-get install phpmyadmin
PHPMyAdmin working at this point at http://my.host.name/phpmyadmin/, so I turned my attention to installing MythWeb:
Back to installing mediawiki:# apt-get install mythwebMythweb was now working at http://my.host.name/mythweb/
# apt-get install mediawikiThis installed version 1.7, but it still wasn't working. Looks like I had two installs (mediawiki and mediawiki1.7)? So I removed one:
# rm /etc/apache2/conf.d/mediawiki.confAnd restarted apache:
# /etc/init.d/apache2 restartThat did it. Browsing to http://my.host.name/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page resulted in a setup menu and a link to configure. I ran through the configuration -
And moved that configuration into place:
Now the only thing left was to re-secure the wiki.# mv /var/lib/mediawiki1.7/config/LocalSettings.php /var/lib/mediawiki1.7/LocalSettings.php
