I also only have a single production system so I won't try that just
yet ;-)
However, I do have a docker stack based dev setup which I use for
testing stuff I contribute to upstream, I'm in the middle of hacking it
about to use your packages instead. I'm using the buster packages at
first but will simulate an upgrade once I have that working. It won't
be a terribly realistic test since it's not a system which has been
used and configured but should provide some basic smoke testing at
least.
One thing I've noticed so far with the existing buster packages is that
installing mythtv-common creates the mythtv user with homedir
/var/lib/mythtv and populates /var/lib/mythtv/.mythtv with the correct
mythtv:mythtv permissions, however /var/lib/mythtv itself is left as
root:root:

Not sure if this would be deliberate or not...
Also just spotted looking above that the config.xml link is root owned too.
I'll let you know how the upgrade the the experimental packages go,
although I'm away this weekend so it might be next week.
