The build issue of X11 project not found, maybe solved by getting the 
latest mythbuild.sh script (there have been some recent changes which 
fixed it on my system - Ubuntu 15.10). But  I also had to install some 
dependencies (not all are required - but I did not have time to work out 
which ones were strictly necessary, its mostly perl and python but 
atleast one other) on the Host system to build mythtv 0.28 i.e.

sudo apt-get install uuid-dev libfreetype6-dev libmp3lame-dev libxv-dev 
libxxf86vm-dev libxinerama-dev libxrandr-dev libxml2-dev 
libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev libexiv2-dev libasound2-dev 
libegl1-mesa-dev libva-dev libvdpau-dev python-mysqldb python-lxml 
python-urlgrabber python-oauth libdbi-perl libdbd-mysql-perl 
libnet-upnp-perl libwww-perl libio-socket-inet6-perl libdate-manip-perl 
libxml-simple-perl libxml-xpath-perl libimage-size-perl 
libdatetime-format-iso8601-perl libsoap-lite-perl libjson-perl 
libvorbis-dev libflac-dev libflac++-dev libtag1-dev libcdio-dev 
libcdio-paranoia-dev libmysqlclient-dev

I do have some concerns about needing to install all these dependencies 
on the Host system (to my mind it means the build script is not really 
picking everything up from the Debian repos, Wheezy or Jessie). Having 
said all this mythfrontend does run quite well on my RPi2 Debian Jessie, 
albeit only using xcb, eglfs seg faults on startup (which is the same 
problem I had with the earlier pre-built images from Lawrence).
