On my system the file exists under /usr/lib/qt3/plugins/sqldrivers, but
mythtv is looking in /usr/lib/kde3/plugins/sqldrivers for some reason. 
I solved it by creating the following link.

/usr/lib/kde3/plugins/sqldrivers -> /usr/lib/qt3/plugins/sqldrivers

-> ls /usr/lib/qt3/plugins/sqldrivers
libqsqlmysql.so  libqsqlodbc.so  libqsqlpsql.so
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
