I also cannot get mythfrontend to start at all with 23029, I am
reverting back to a known good (for me) version, and if that works, I
will try and narrow down the commit that broke it. I did some other
things in between so I'm not sure if it is Myth related, or OS/package
related. i think I removed everything that changed, but I'm not 100%
sure.
