That is all incorrect. the mc.sql is precisely what creates the
database for you, along with setting the correct attributes that the
DB schema creation and upgrade path that mythbackend follow expects.
You do *not* need to create the DB first, and you definitely don't
want to run the DB creation script on the database it itself creates.
