Public bug reported:

The Ubuntu-specific mythtv-setup script (that wraps around mythtv-
setup.real) specifically calls xterm to run a couple of processes.
Instead, it should call x-terminal-emulator in order to run the users
preferred terminal emulator. This would result in a more unified
experience for the user - e.g. displaying the same fonts and using the
same scrolling mechanism with which the user is familiar.

There might be a problem with different terminal emulators using
different command-line parameters. For example, gnome-terminal and
roxterm use --title rather than -title that xterm uses.
