This is because you removed /var/lib/mythtv/recordings.
It is included in the package, so not a bug in the package
~$ dpkg -L mythtv-backend | grep /mythtv/recordings
/var/lib/mythtv/recordings

---------------
mythtv (0.21.0+fixes17416-0ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * New checkout of release-0-21-fixes branch.
  * debian/mythfrontend.sh:
    - check for /etc/mythtv/session-settings when sourcing it. (LP: #220681)
  * debian/mythtv-backend.postinst:
    - check for directories before overriding (LP: #223988)
  * drop debian/mythtv-database.postrm
    - Wasn't doing anything productive but causing crashes. (LP: #213200)
  * debian/control:
    - Adjust dependencies to only build depend on chrome for i386 and
      amd64. This should fix all other archs. (LP: #211125)
  * add debian/patches/17_pvr350_tvout_fix:
    - Fixes PVR-350 tv output's EPG. (LP: #236498)
      Thanks bal_zac for tracking this down.
  * update debian/patches/07_glx-procaddressARB-configure
    - Certain parts are absorbed upstream.
