I find that in selecting to install the Debian Testing MythTV-Backend package it installs other packages such as xterm and QT but NO xorg server packages. Very odd. I would have thought that X packages such as xterm would depend on xorg-xserver packages - but no.
You don't need a local xserver to run X applications. If you have SSH setup with X forwarding, or you set your DISPLAY environment variable appropriately, then the X applications (eg. xterm) will display on the other computer.
