The new build gives this same set of warnings on leaving mythtv-setup. 
I saw something very similar in the ubuntu 18.04 master ppa last 
Thursday, but don't have that box now.

A channel scan starts but segfaults after around 5 transports,as below. 
I haven't tried running mythbackend again.

This el7 build from 24 Jan runs well: 
mythtv-32.Pre.2062.g03dd08c3eb-100.el7.x86_64.rpm  That was before the 
std::chrono updates.

and today's master in F32 is probably better (cutlist editor less likely 
to hang)

el7 has gssdp v 1.0.2-1 from SL security.  F32 has v 1.0.5-1

I suppose all this just underlines the need to move on from el7, but it 
looks to me as if 'buntu 18.04 has it too.
