Comment 2 for bug 992276

Other than the initial directory structure (/srv/mythtv/*) we aren't installing anything into /srv, it's being populated by the MythTV backend.

According to this

https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/ftp-server.html#vsftpd-anonymous-configuration

"During installation a ftp user is created with a home directory of /srv/ftp. This is the default FTP directory."
