I'm one of those who's BE shuts down if it's not doing anything.

Even if I run the command manually as the mythtv user:

/usr/local/share/mythtv/hardwareprofile/sendProfile.py --submitOnly -a

and: echo $? returns 0.

I <assumed> that would reset the 30 day counter, but the BE still
tries to run it (and fails) when I restarted it.

I'd be glad to test an x minute delay.
