Great help!
Now I see my mistake following buiding instruction from some XBMC forum.
After making and installing *.deb from github right as you wrote on test PC I see pidfile and folder /home/hts (in my case I have only /home/(name_of_user) for TVH).
Just one more question left - what exact starting command should be for Ubuntu - "/usr/local/bin/tvheadend -f"?
