Just for additional clarification, mythtv-backend fails to start as part
of the normal upstart job during normal startup. However, I can start
mythtv-backend using the command "sudo service mythtv-backend start" and
it starts successfully and I am able to use myth on my remote systems
just fine.

In syslog during system startup, I see a number of messages similar to:
    init: mythtv-backend main process ended, respawning
    init: mythtv-backend main process (1738) terminated with status 130

Finally, I get:
init: mythtv-backend respawning too fast, stopped

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...
