I ran into this same problem approximately two weeks ago on my amd64 box with the same version. I also needed to rebuild mythtv due to a library upgrade. I originally thought that the problem arose when the ebuild switched from using a SVN checkout to a tarball download. However, the changelog shows that this happened on March 2nd, but I successfully emerged mythtv-0.21_p18314-r1 on April 24th. I upgraded mythtv to 0.21_p20877. It builds correctly on my system and also corrects an issue I was having with the backend process occasionally segfaulting when the frontend exited. Sorry I do not know how to fix this particular issue, but so far 0.21_p20877 has been working great for me on amd64 after a few days of light usage. Regards, Brandon Vargo
