Hi Torfinn,

I looked back at the email history for this issue
(http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-ports@freebsd.org/msg20428.html),
and I may have dropped it on the floor because of the ports freeze right
around that time.

I think the pkg-install script is not waiting for the mysql process to
start before it checks its status again.  In the end, mysql does start
successfully, but pkg-install script has exited before it has a chance
to create the database.

Can you do me a favor and change line 1 of files/pkg-install.in from
"#!/bin/sh" to "#!/bin/sh -x" and reinstall mythtv?  Make sure that
mysql is not running before you do that and then send me the output of
the script.

I'll also try to reproduce the problem here and see if I get similar
results.

Thank you,
Greg
