Comment (by mark@…):

using ubuntu 16.04 and MCC,.. although I have found the MCC to be
unreliable,.. so this maybe a MCC issue.
Question:- is there a default mythfrontend.Desktop file created that may
be used with default icon etc already pre-defined.
Tx

Comment:

Ubuntu installs the mythtv-frontend as `/usr/bin/mythfrontend.real`,
creates a symlink for `/usr/bin/mythfrontend` to a script
`/usr/share/mythtv/mythfrontend.sh`.
This script accepts the command line parameter '--service'.

I you want to change the command line parameters for the mythtv-frontend,
you can edit the file
`/etc/mythtv/session-settings` and enable 'MYTHFRONTEND_OPTS'.

Please read details of the package installation at
https://github.com/MythTV/packaging/tree/fixes/29/deb or
https://github.com/MythTV/packaging/tree/master/deb
