[Bug 1446617] Re: Version numbers in ppa packages don't support ubuntu upgrades
I don't think this is something we can fix. Even if we put in the ubuntu
release name, there will still be instances where it wouldn't upgrade
properly. For instance
2:0.27.4+fixes.20150418.7860e91-0ubuntu0mythbuntu4 is currently the
latest PPA build and is available for trusty. Even if we put in the
ubuntu release number, a user upgrading to utopic would only get
2:0.27.1, which isn't newer than the PPA.
The correct, recommended method would be to reactivate the PPA after
upgrading.
If someone could out a way to do it, I would consider puting it in.
** Changed in: mythtv (Ubuntu)

Title:
Version numbers in ppa packages don't support ubuntu upgrades
Status in mythtv package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
The version numbers you use for your PPA packages don't include the
ubuntu release version they're built for, so if I'm running a current
ppa version and then upgrade ubuntu (12.04 -> 14.04 in my case),
mythtv isn't upgraded to the version built for the new ubuntu version
correctly.
You need to include the ubuntu version before the datestamp/git part.
