The first thing to do is to add your account to the mythtv group :

sudo adduser <login-name> mythtv

Add a symbolic link to the .mythtv directory :

mkdir ~/.mythtv
cd ~/.mythtv
ln -s /etc/mythtv/config.xml config.xml

For the impatient :

A minimal configuration is needed (configure a storage directory is
mandatory, leave all other options unconfigured), otherwise the backend will
never start.

To configure MythTV:

mythtv-setup
