package mythtv-0.25.5.20150616 is missing a lot of dependencies. With only mythtv installed on a fresh install of 10.3 the "pkg check -d -a" command shows this mythtv has a missing dependency: lame mythtv has a missing dependency: p5-xmltv mythtv has a missing dependency: qt4-network mythtv has a missing dependency: py27-urlgrabber mythtv has a missing dependency: p5-LWP-UserAgent-Determined mythtv has a missing dependency: p5-Net-UPnP mythtv has a missing dependency: p5-DBD-mysql mythtv has a missing dependency: qt4-mysql-plugin mythtv has a missing dependency: qt4-l10n mythtv has a missing dependency: p5-HTTP-Request-Params mythtv has a missing dependency: py27-MySQLdb mythtv has a missing dependency: p5-IO-Socket-INET6 mythtv has a missing dependency: qt4-script mythtv has a missing dependency: qt4-sql mythtv has a missing dependency: qt4-imageformats mythtv has a missing dependency: wget mythtv is missing a required shared library: libQtWebKit.so.4 This is after I installed xorg-server & mysql56-server which should also be included in the dependent list. Also Lame does not have a package for it as of 4/10/2016 The mythtv-setup command should work after mythtv package is installed, that is the test to verify if port is good or not.
This is not a problem of the mythtv port. The port clearly lists lame and p5-xmltv and the others as dependencies. https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/multimedia/mythtv/Makefile?revision=412348&view=markup Your system seems to be either messed up or probably there were some issues with pkg.
On the other hand just looking at the makefile is not enough to say the problem is not reproducible. Did you really issue "pkg install mythtv" command and then issue "pkg check -d -a" command? Did you do this test on a freshly installed 10.3 system? Please explain how you tested for this problem? If it comes down to there is a problem with the "pkg" program then lets identify it as such and issue a bug report on it.
I am not saying that there is no problem. I just say that this is definitely not a mythtv ports issue. It can be a bug in various other places or it could be an issue with the last package set and might resolve itself with the next package set (after ~3 days). If you want a more precise answer please spend some time to find the real cause. I will remove myself from that bug now since I was assigned to it as mythtv maintainer and leave it open for you to collect further information. Good luck!
Looks like a pkg user error. A full reinstall of all prime ports would likely have fixed this 2 month-old report. Closing due to lack of feedback (and lack of real issue).
Leave maintainer assigned
Koobs, decke intentionally removed himself from this PR (see after comment #3). Did you not realize that? I think you should respect his wishes.
To clarify last state change: Issues should have a real assignee on close, in the event the issue is re-opened at a later date. I picked decke@ after checking he remained the current MAINTAINER for the port. Technically John could have also been the final Assignee (closer is responsible, whether fix-by-commit or other), but presumably MAINTAINER would want to be responsible/notified first if the issue is indeed re-opened, in this case after 3 months of no feedback.
Speaking for myself, if I understand that the price for housekeeping (closing obsoletely unclaimed bug reports) is that I become responsible for future comments/reopening of the bug report, I would be much less likely to perform the housecleaning. It converts the report from a "community problem" to "my problem". If that's the policy, so be it, but that will definitely curtail my activity even more.
