The Python bindings do not get installed in
/usr/share/mythtv/bindings.  Try running this:

python3 -c "import MythTV"

If you do not get any errors, then the MythTV bindings are installed.
They are installed in:

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/MythTV

This command will show if the package is installed:

apt list --installed | grep libmyth-python
