Like many things in the wiki, this is incorrect.
But they then go on to do this:
 ./configure --prefix=/usr
 qmake PREFIX=/usr mythtv.pro

Which will overwrite the libmyth they installed from the
vendor libs. I don't know why this guide goes through
so much pain to install things in the wrong place for
a local install, perhaps it was written by someone
maintaining vendor packages. Get rid of all the
"/usr" or "/usr/bin" stuff and the libmyth vendor
package install and the guide should work for you.

Please take further questions to the mythtv user's
mailing list though, there should be someone out
there with your exact distro that can help.
