Ok, initial testing of the 'mythtv' port.
The first time I did 'portinstall -R mythtv' it failed because the
newly installed mysql-server couldn't be started (because it is missing
a mysql_enable="YES" in /etc/rc.conf). Not sure how this should be
handled.
Output from portinstall command:
cd config/ && gmake -f Makefile install
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/multimedia/mythtv/work/mythtv-0.23-rc1/config'
gmake[1]: `install' is up to date.
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/multimedia/mythtv/work/mythtv-0.23-rc1/config'
Added group "mythtv".

I just started mysql-server manually, cd'ed to the port directory and did a 'make install' afterwards.

Ok, more testing to follow.
