Bug#570611: ITP: mythtv -- A personal video recorder application
I did some more work on this package, fixing the things that were obvious issues on Debian:
Add init script
fix libtiff5-dev -> libtiff-dev build-dep issue
Fix nonexistent 'syslog' user in postinsts script of mythtv-common
Add -Wdeprecated-declarations so that mythtarchive plugin builds
Add DEB_BUILD_OPTS noopt, nostrip support
Include a bit of extra info in README on getting started with mythtv-setup
The built packages are available at http://wookware.org/software/repo/pool/main/m/mythtv/
built for jessie
Attached is the diff against fixes/0.27 branch
I will test these and see if there are issues.
Is there a more stable branch I should be working against, and if you
are happy with this stuff would it make sense to give me git access (or
do we have some kind of review process or some other place to ddiscuss
things than this bug?)

--------------------------
MythTV for Debian & Ubuntu
--------------------------
+
+This package is set up so that mythtv should be run as the mythtv
+user. For a dedicated mythtv system, you may wish to set up your
+display manager (e.g., gdm) to automatically login as the mythtv user
+and start mythfrontend.
+
+
+How to use myth-setup
+---------------------
+
+In order to use mythtv you need to run myth-setup.
+
+First you need to stop the backend :
+ sudo invoke-rc.d mythtv-backend stop
+
+Then run myth-setup as user mythtv:
+ sudo -u mythtv mythtv-setup
+
+If this doesn't work, change the X server permission :
+ xhost +local
+ sudo -u mythtv mythtv-setup
+ xhost -local
+
+Start the backend:
+ sudo invoke-rc.d mythtv-backend start
+
+
+-------------------
+>Package uploading<
+-------------------
The MythTV package is actually a giant source package that includes all of the
work that upstream MythTV works on. It's organized this way for maintainer
simplicity and to workaround some limitations within Launchpad.
-If it's decoupled into many individual packages, the maintainer will need to
+As it is decoupled into many individual packages, the maintainer will need to
always make sure they're uploaded in sync. This can mean 3-5 uploads each time
rather than a single one.
