Most everyone who reads the dev list also reads this list, and since the 
question is not directly related to development (as would be a post 
identifying the reason libmythfreemheg is not being installed on your 
system), no need to post to the dev list.

The problem is almost definitely due to the way you're building or 
installing your Myth.  The wrong build version is an especially big 
indicator that your build process isn't correct.

Unfortunately, there are far to many possible causes to start guessing 
them.  So, my recommendation is to go back to as clean a system as you 
can get.  I.e. uninstall--even if "manually"--as much myth stuff from 
the system as possible (you can leave the database in place) and build 
from a clean checkout (not a "make clean" or "make distclean"--but a 
clean checkout) while making sure to follow the build instructions 
exactly and ensuring you've properly specified the QTDIR and that the QT 
bin directory is in the PATH.
