Yes, but if you ever want to change anything, such as what jobs are
allowed to run on this machine, then you need to re-run mythtv-setup,
unless we want to take a step backwards and start having the user
run SQL commands to change DB settings. A user might also want to
modify the JobQueue time window which also needs to be done via
mythtv-setup.
Would you say the same thing about mythbackend requiring mythtv-setup
since you could use raw SQL commands to setup the DB and your capture
cards or that once you've got mythbackend up and running you don't
need mythtv-setup anymore?
