XML tv listings grabber: misleading error message

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Confirmed
Bug description:
The error logs told me that I had to run the following command:
mythfilldatabase --manual
I ran this from a terminal, and it reported an error message along the
following lines:
[xmltv config file] does not contain any listings; delete [file] and re-run
me with the --configure option
The cause of the error was that the tv_grab script needed to be run again. I
cleared it with tv_grab_uk_rt --configure. Unfortunately, this wiped out my
terminal scrollback so I don't have the exact error message - but it definitely
used the terms "me" and "--configure".
The error message given implies that the user should re-run the same command as
they previously ran, i.e. mythfilldatabase --configure or mythfilldatabase
--manual --configure. It gives no indication of the correct command to run.
( Suggested resolution: It would be much better if the error message contained
the exact command to run (i.e. using $0 or similar). Ideally it could even
re-launch itself if needed).
