latin1 works perfectly fine on MySQL 4.1 and 5.0 too, so, if you were |
| 8 |
using latin1 before, you should (must) continue to use it for things to |
| 9 |
not break, or you will have to convert your databases to utf8 which is |
| 10 |
the default for the 4.1/5.0 series on Gentoo. To maintain the latin1 |
| 11 |
charset as default even when using 4.1/5.0, simply enable the "latin1" |
| 12 |
USE flag on the 4.1/5.0 ebuild, et voila: you have a latin1 MySQL install! |
