 Mythbackend has been locking up recently. I didn't have verbose logging
 going on the last couple of times, so I will attach that at a later time
 (once it happens again). I don't have steps to reproduce, it just seems to
 happen at random. Sometimes it takes 5 minutes between killing the
 previous process to over a day.

 It completely stops responding to the API, frontends, mythweb, etc. The
 process is not using 100% which is why I think this is just a deadlock and
 not a resource problem.

 I was able to get two backtraces during the lock up (attach method). Those
 are attached. This has occurred for about a month, give or take, so I
 think it is around the last 2 or 3 releases from this PPA:
