That works.

I installed mythtv  package (client/server), mythweb, plus plugins 
mythnews, mythbrowser

Configured a single VBOX network tuner, LiveTV and recording all work.

The usual issues (all have trac tickets) were experienced:

user not  added to mythtv group (removal of gksu)

file 20-mythweb.ini installed in /etc/php/7.0/apache2/conf.d should be 
/etc/php/7.2/apache2/conf.d
