To clear up some things I decided to create a few different test
cases. My previous test had a restore database involved that could
have confused the results.
On a clean system (restored Timeshift snapshot after system setup but
prior to DMO repo added and mythtv installed) I started from scratch.
After the stable-backports repo was added I installed mythtv from the backport.
Next I changed the mythtv-backend.service to have
Environment=Home=/home/mythtv and rebooted.
I used the Web App setup and no issue with the database or anything else.
After testing the frontend with LiveTV, I shut it down and ran
/usr/share/doc/mythtv/examples/maintenance/optimize_mythdb.pl and it
worked without any issues. I didn't have to copy the config.xml
So I'm going to do the exact same install but with the Environment=
statement complete removed.
