Basically, your system's installation of Python is configured to look 
for Python packages under /usr , so MythTV's Python package is installed 
where Python will find it so you don't have to specify a PYTHONPATH 
every time you want to execute some Python program using the MythTV 
stuff.  If you want it to install in /usr/local you'll need to 
reconfigure your system Python installation to look there.
