MythTV .027 MacPorts install stalled

[Richard Gregory]

I’ve downloaded and installed the MacPorts version of the MythTV installer. Following the instructions for ‘Initial Installation’ I opened terminal and checked ‘echo $PATH’ which didn’t have the ‘/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin’ as expected according to the instructions.

After typing 

echo "export PATH=/opt/dvr/bin:/opt/dvr/sbin:/opt/dvr/lib/mariadb/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.bash_profile


and quitting terminal I restarted it and got this-

[Richard-Gregorys-iMac:~] rich% echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
[Richard-Gregorys-iMac:~] rich% echo "export PATH=/opt/dvr/bin:/opt/dvr/sbin:/opt/dvr/lib/mariadb/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.bash_profile
[Richard-Gregorys-iMac:~] rich%

You have mail.
[Richard-Gregorys-iMac:~] rich% echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
[Richard-Gregorys-iMac:~] rich% 

Which doesn’t look to me to have done what I was trying to do. Is it safe to move on from here or did I miss something?

I ask because I tried installing on a mac mini where I downloaded mysql separately and also hit an impasse, so I thought I’d try my iMac (on the same network).

Any help is appreciated, I am not a Terminal user for the most part!
