I again got stuck at the database page I found it was reporting errors
it a text window (that was hidden on my previous attempt), and after 3
failures gave up. If there is going to be a gui setup, there should be
gui error messages.

After it gave up, the text window suggested I run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure
mythtv-database" this seems to have worked, but it was a completely
different setup window than what showed up when package manager ran.

At this point it appears that MythTV front end & backend are working
again, MythWeb is stuck showing just "MythWeb" twice.

Bug description:
Sequence of events:
Yesterday I installed a bunch of updates for MythTV. After which I ran mythbackendsetup which usually takes care of any database issues. I used mythweb and it was working, and watched a recording with myth front end.
At the end of the day I logged out, and mythbackend being idle shut my system down.
My system is configured to automatically wake a 3:00 AM and run a script (This script currently does nothing, eventually this script is intended to backup my system to a network drive, but that is not yet implemented), and then shut down.

This morning my computer was on and running. I figured that it was recording something, so I logged in, brought up a browser and went to mythweb. I got a blank screen with "mythweb" written twice in the upper left corner.
I tried running myth front end. It came up full screen with a different theme asking for the language to use. I selected english, and then it started asking about the database. At this point I figured something was seriously screwed up, so I hit esc a few times to exit out and rebooted my computer.

After the reboot, the behavior was the same, but I noticed a new version of mythTV was available, so I updated to that. As part of the update, it brought up a window to set up the database (which it should not have done as the database was already set up) It was giving a username I had never seen before, and clicking help suggested using "root" I changed the user name to "root" and clicked "forward". Nothing happened. Clicking forward many times did nothing. There were no other buttons to click, attempting to kill the task did not work, so I rebooted.

After the reboot I attempted to run mythbackendsetup, I was again presented with a full screen page asking for language. The next page was selecting the database. This one was using the correct username & password, so I clicked next, It claimed that it could not log in, and dumped me back at the same page. After a few repeats of this, I hit esc to exit out. At this point the crash indicator appeared, and I reported the bug.
