I presume you mean as a way to get wget installed?  Did that.  Still have the problem that wget is not found when MythTV-Setup.app is run from the Finder.

However, I found that I can run it from Terminal at the following path:
MythTV-Setup.app/Contents/MacOS/MythTV-Setup

This way, wget works and my Lineup is retrieved.  Now I'm off to see if I can MythFillDatabase the same way!
