Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Because I need / want to develop some stuff against MySQL-5.1 on my |
| 4 |
Macbook I started porting the mysql-ebuild to my prefix environment |
| 5 |
using ecopy and friends. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
In addition I need dev-python/mysql-python and sqlalchemy with the mysql |
| 8 |
useflag turned on. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I've ecopy'd: |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
dev-db/mysql-community-5.1.21_beta |
| 13 |
dev-python/mysql-python-1.2.2-r1 |
| 14 |
dev-db/mysql-init-scripts-1.2 |
| 15 |
virtual/mysql-5.1 |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |

| 22 |
for it ) |

init-scripting: |

The result is that I have a working ebuild for |
| 32 |
mysql-community-5.1.21_beta which I emerged with use-flags: ssl |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
As soon as I add innodb as use-flag innodb cmake gets pulled in as a |
| 35 |
dependency which fails to build on macosx-x86, possibly due to |
| 36 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=236740 |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
I have not yet had the time to investigate any further into this. |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
emerge --config fails due to an unknown option used when starting the |
| 41 |
server (--skip-ndbcluster) which is added in the mysql.eclass for all |
| 42 |
server above version 4.1.3, if I remove that there's an unknown option |
| 43 |
for --skip-innodb, seems like the eclass might need a small revamp to |
| 44 |
deal with the new plugin setup in 5.1 |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Caveats: |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
install-db scripting needs to be run by hand. |
| 49 |
no innodb support |
| 50 |
no working init-script |
| 51 |
ownership of the logfiles need to be reset by hand |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
I have the following questions: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
* What testing if any is normal for this kind of stuff ? I'm looking |
| 56 |
into getting the test-suite to run on the installed bins, is that |
| 57 |
mandatory for prefix ? |
| 58 |
* What is the current idea of init-scripts for these type of services, |
| 59 |
should the init-scripts be patched to work on alt-platformX ? |
| 60 |
* How to get these ebuilds into prefix, open a bug ? |
| 61 |
* What about the eclass updates that are necessary (this most likely |
| 62 |
affects current "normal" gentoo tree as well ?) |
| 63 |
* Did I miss anything that needs to be done ? |
