This should fix your problem:

4.2 Shared-Library Requirements for MythTV

 Modifying /etc/ld.so.conf

The runtime manager for shared libraries, /lib/ld.so, gets information about 
the locations and contents of shared libraries from /etc/ld.so.cache, a file 
created by ldconfig from information in /etc/ld.so.conf. Because MythTV 
installs some shared libraries in /usr/local/lib, that directory needs to be 
added to the list of directories for ld.so to search when doing runtime 
linking of programs, if it is not already there. You do this, as root, by 
editing /etc/ld.so.conf, then running ldconfig. There are many ways to do 
this; one that works is to enter this series of commands:

$ su -
# echo /usr/local/lib >> /etc/ld.so.conf
# /sbin/ldconfig
# exit
$
