There should be a hosts file that comes with the MythTV ansible. It should contain
three lines:
localhost	ansible_connection=local

The -i hosts (short for --inventory hosts) then uses that file.  If it works and John agrees,
I can add it to the command lines in the README.md for MacOSX. I don't have a Mac (I did have
an Apple ][.). Or, maybe we need a custom inventory for MacOSX.
