Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mythtv

Version information below.

I start the frontend by running "mythfrontend --service". But if I look
at that script it never seems to start mythfrontend.real, but on line 81
starts itself again. This time it's without the --service parameter,
such that the actual invocation of mythfrontend.real happens on line 88,
but only after having done the start-up processing twice.

I wonder if it wouldn't be simpler to modify line 81 to invoke
mythfrontend.real directly? I've made that change here and it seems to
work fine.
