In that case, would a Gentoo OpenRC user mind doing a test for me?
Edit the mythtv-0.28.ebuild file and comment out or delete the
following line:
        use systemd || myconf="${myconf} $(use_enable mythlogserver)"

Then install mythtv and let me know if your logging is working exactly
as it did before.  It sounds like it should.  I'll update the ebuild
again after we get the results of testing in...
