Title:
  Upstart issue and mythbackend

Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Strange problem with the backend during upstart on Ubuntu oneiric: the
  syslog tells me that the backend respawns too quickly and thus gives
  up on trying to start it via upstart.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1) Reboot system 2) Check with 'ps' and the syslog

  I changed the interface from lo to eth0 in the pre-conditions and also
  changed .5 to 60 in the script sections but to no avail...
