Bill, I just tried it out and you're right! The PYTHONPATH variable is not
set:

$ cat working_easy.log
----------------------------------------------------
PYTHONHOME = Is not set.
PYTHONPATH = /mythtv/local64/lib/python2.7/site-packages/.
PYTHONNOUSERSITE = Is not set.
About to import: MythTV
The import worked.
About to import: MythTV.tmdb3
The import worked.
$ cat broken_easy.log
----------------------------------------------------
PYTHONHOME = Is not set.
PYTHONPATH = Is not set.
PYTHONNOUSERSITE = Is not set.
About to import: MythTV
The MythTV import failed.
About to import: MythTV.tmdb3
The MythTV.tmdb3 import failed.
$

Do I need those other two variables set? It doesn't appear as though I do.
I wonder why the start-stop-daemon using --chuid wouldn't apply this stuff.
I'll have to do some research on environment variables when using it.
