Yes. Livna to be precise.

Don't know, I never used any version of mythtv.

You have to ask people. But if you ask me: Yes, that would be a problem
for me if I would like to use mythtv or other stuff from ATrpms. That's
one of the reasons why livna exists afaics. 

And I really would like to see mythtv in livna. Some work has already
been done to achieve that, but nobody did enough and submitted it for QA
to livna.
