[mythtv-users] Trouble doing a Mac frontend build

[Michael Cowell]

I got the same problem with the sniper pad build. If you set the 
MYTHTVDIR envrionment variable to the root application folder it starts.

i.e. MYTHTVDIR=/Applications/MythFrontend.app/Contents/Resources 
/Applications/MythFrontend.app/Contents/MacOS/mythfrontend

It should be possible to whack up a wrapper script to permanently fix 
the problem.
