Thank you for your bug report. Could you please describe your
environment, how you set up your minimal system, what packages you
installed, etc. I've tried reproducing this in a VM but was unable to.

Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: mythtv
Since 0.23.0+fixes24158-0ubuntu2, a patch has been applied which causes mythtv
to use DBus to attempt to shut down the system. Whilst this is a step in the
right direction for the 'doing it right' argument. It breaks existing behaviour
and causes dependencies which don't appear to be satisfied by the mythtv
package itself.
Case in point;
My set-up was a custom installed ubuntu lucid system. Installed with minimal X
and only whatever else I could get away with. Before this patch came in, I was
using two custom commands to shut down and restart the system. Now they no
longer work, and the dbus method appears to not work either. The only way I can
shutdown currently is to log into the system and issue the command manually.
The 'dbus' package is already installed, but it appears to not be enough to
make this work. I do not know which package needs installing or configuring and
this may add extra overhead this system cannot afford.
No error messages appear at all to tell me why anything has failed, so I have
not included logs.
This patch appears to have made it in very late in Lucid's development cycle.
At the very least the extra dependencies need to be added to the mythtv package
so the system can shutdown and reboot. Ideally, I feel this update should be
reversed until it has received more testing, as it did suddenly break a couple
of machines when a feature freeze was in effect.
The behaviour in ubuntu1 version was fine, and worked as expected.
