If people find more bugs, it'll change more.  If not, it won't :)

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Opinion

Bug description:
Since converting to an upstart job, the mythtv-backend start job is unable to specify environment variables to be set in the mythtv-backend process.  The example on hand is proxy setting variables.  My backend has to use a proxy in order to use the Internet and now there is no way to tell it short of hacking the upstart job itself, assuming I even understood it's syntax.
