Sorry I jumped the gun on my post and answered my own question. I did a
search on the files that I had in /usr/lib/libmyth* and found that I had the
same files in /usr/local/libmyth* from when I used the svn but forgot to use
the --preifx=/usr option, just as suggested above. I deleted all libmyth* in
/usr/local/lib/libmyth* and everything is working great so far. Thanks for
the help
