linmythexiv2 in built from source in MythTV. The cmake process builds 
and installs usr/lib/libmythexiv2.so.0.99.0.0 . So this is not a case of 
a missing run time dependency. For some reason cmake is not building or 
not installing  libmythexiv2.so.0.99.0.0 . Look at the lib directory in 
the output from cmake (the directory in CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX) to see if 
libmythexiv2.so.0.99.0.0 is there.

If it is not there, perhaps some build dependency is not found, 
preventing libmythexiv2 being built.
