[mythtv-users] Frontend constantly restarted if backend not reachable (Ubuntu & Mythtv 0.25)

Is there any bug/issue raised for this problem?

If the backend is not available on the network the frontend under
Ubuntu displays its off-green country-selection, then server selection
screen.  If you exit out of it, Ubuntu thinks it abnormally exited as
'crash' and restarts it.  Not sure if mythtv is restarting itself or
Ubunbu is being 'smart'.

Its quite annoying if you're not connecting to the backend as you have
to kill the process manually on the frontend or put up with the
country-selection list ever-present in the background.
