It is still not finding the config.xml.  There is a way of telling
MythTV programs specifically where to look, so please add these two
lines to your do_mhegepgsnoop.py file at the end of the configuration
settings at the top of the file (after #MAP_FILE=)

# Force a specific location for finding the MythTV configuration.
MYTHCONFDIR=/etc/mythtv
