[Bug 1073580] [NEW] mythtv-backend needs to run in writable directory

 

Public bug reported:

The mythtv-backend process needs to be run in a directory that it can
write into, ~mythtv for example.  This is required so that a core file
can be collected if/when it segfaults -- like it has been doing here.
