Mythbuntu Repositories

I currently have 3 computer with MythTV installed.

A Mythbuntu 10.04 backed and two Ubuntu installs with MythTV installed from
the Ubuntu Software Centre.

There are some problems with using this method, mainly even when only
selecting the frontend to install, both the frontend and backend install.
The way I fix that is to install the MythControlCentre as well, and then use
that to uninstall the unwanted backend.

Right, so far so good.

But the MCC (MythControlCentre) has no repositories section so my frontends
are stuck whilst my Backend seems to want to patch everyday.

How do I enable the repositories section in the MCC?

Also, is there anyone where that can fix the Ubuntu Software Centre
installs, so that when the frontend is selected for install and no backend,
ONLY the frontend actually installs? Or perhaps tell me how and where I
should be raising this? I'm pretty sure I should be posting this in a
bugtracker for the Mythbuntu project, but I have no real idea.

Install the deb from this page and it will set it all up for you.
Unless you want trunk, choose 0.23 and you'll actually get 0.23-fixes
