Check all the config files for MySQL under /etc/mysql.  Find which
ones have uncommented "bind=" lines.  I suspect the one that is
getting changed to allow external access is one of the files that gets
installed from the MythTV packages and may be being overwritten when
newer packages get installed.

cd /etc/mysql
grep -ir "bind=" *
