Tvheadend

You could put that command in the init script, /etc/init.d/tvheadend if you're running an older version. If you're running the latest deb (build from git master) then it will need to go in /etc/init/tvheadend.

where i can put the script?

@adam: debian does not use upstarts only ubuntu does. So .deb does not mean upstart and I for one need a valid init.d/tveheadend file....

At the start of do_start() I think.

Adam

@EricV no problem you can build it how you like (the init.d script is still there) but we only provide packages for Ubuntu 12.04. Though we are looking to change that.

I'm not even sure if the deb system cleverly handles the duplicity or not, I'd think probably it does.

Adam

Testing debian/ubuntu when installing should not be that complicated anyway e.g.
if [ -f /etc/debian_version ]
then
...
