[gentoo-user] OT - Need help installing MythTV

[Michael Sullivan]

I had a Windows-related computer disaster this week that forced me to
wipe my entire hard drive.  I've almost got everything back to normal,
but have run into a snag with MythTV.  I'm following the wiki, and it
says that if I have <=mysql-5.0.19 I have to enter 

# eselect mysql list
# eselect mysql set <number in list of mysql version you are using>
# eselect mysql show
# mysql -u root -p < /usr/share/mythtv/database/mc.sql

Here's the problem:

camille ~ # emerge -pv mysql

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] dev-db/mysql-4.1.20  USE="berkdb perl ssl -big-tables -cluster -debug -embedded -extraengine -latin1 -minimal -raid -srvdir -static" 16,917 kB

Total size of downloads: 16,917 kB
camille ~ # eselect mysql list
Available MySQL versions:
  (none found)
camille ~ #

mysql is running - I can even log into it and do queries - but this says that there is no mysql installed.  What can I do about this?
