The scripts don't touch mythweb at all, they only concern themselves with
MythTV and the plugins themselves.  The author of the script expects you to
simply check out mythweb rather than expect it to be packaged.  The author
of the scripts simply doesn't use Mythweb on gentoo and as such, doesn't
provide any support for updating it with his script.

Further, if you want more up to date mythweb from the existing ebuild
files, users of master are expected to simply edit the hash in the ebuild
and voila, it's up to date.
