[Bug 343204] [NEW] Mode of /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt should be 660

[Mario Limonciello]

Hi, can you please verify this behavior on 9.04? This may have been a
bug in a large portion of the mythtv chain, but I seem to believe it
has been fixed already. The new versions ask to put you in the mythtv
group and continue to work after dpkg reconfigure of myth* or MCC
runs.
