If I'm reading that correctly, with my limited knowledge I think your
setting your prefix wrong, apt-get puts the source in  /usr as opposed
to /usr/local.

You could try what Allen suggested:

cd mythplugins
make clean
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-mythgames
make
sudo make install

Did you say you had Myth already compiled and running?

I had a similar problem trying to get Myth rolling on my Xbox there's
a thread in the archives (Optimum compile settings for xbox?) with
some useful info. this might help though:

"As I suspected.  The packaged version installed with apt-get, gets
installed under /usr.  By default, versions of myth you compile
yourself (0.19 or latest svn), get installed to /usr/local.

When you run /usr/bin/mythfrontend, the dynamic linker is linking to
the wrong version of libmyth.  Depending on what exactly you have got
installed in /usr/local/lib, the results of this are going to be
chaotic.

To get the packaged version running, either move the contents of
/usr/local/lib out of the way, or remove any reference to
/usr/local/lib from /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig."
