mythgame not finding xmame roms

[rks1789]

I have had mythtv running for many months now. I've just emerged mythgame and I can't get it to see my roms (the list is empty). I changed all the paths to be correct, I went out and downloaded the latest catver.ini file. The owner of the roms is games:games, and the permissions are rwxrwxrwx (777).

During the build I get this error:

install: cannot stat `gamedb/*.sql': No such file or directory

At the end it says to do:

* You might run in this order:
* 'mysql < /usr/share/mythtv/database/mythgame/gamemetadata.sql'
* 'mysql < /usr/share/mythtv/database/mythgame/nesdb.sql'
* 'mysql < /usr/share/mythtv/database/mythgame/snesdata.sql'
*

But there are no files in the mythgame directory.

I re-built mythgame and paused in the middle, there were no .sql files in the working area.

Another post suggested that it does it for me, I don't see a message but I could be missing it.

Has anyone found a fix for this?

this might be a silly suggestion, but i'd try to just download the source from the mythgame site, and see if you can get those sql files out of it. :)
