[mythtv-users] mythtv-setup freezes on exit

[Stephen Robertson]

It's no help but I've been seeing this too. Had a look and saw no reports
so thought it was just me and have not had time to investigate. Don't know
whether it is related but on starting mythtv-setup then it pops up the,
presumably mythbuntu generated, dialog saying that the back end should be
stopped. It asks for the password but setup always warns itself that the
backend is still running.

One thing I have been meaning to try was running setup directly without
using the mythbuntu wrapper and see.
