12 MySQL 5.5 is now stable across all arches. The upgrade process
13 will be require you to rebuild everything linked to
14 libmysqlclient.so.16 and libmysqlclient_r.so.16.
15
16 This may be done for you by portage with 'emerge @preserved-rebuild'.
17
18 A small number of libraries may not be automatically rebuilt against
19 the new MySQL libraries using preserved-rebuild. If you have
20 difficulties with packages not finding the new libraries, install
21 app-portage/gentoolkit and run:
22 # revdep-rebuild --library libmysqlclient.so.16
23 # revdep-rebuild --library libmysqlclient_r.so.16
24
25 The official upgrade documentation is available here:
26 http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/upgrading.html
27
28 Please be sure to review the upgrade document for any possible actions
29 necessary before and after the upgrade. This includes running
30 mysql_upgrade after the upgrade completion.

32 Due to security flaws, MySQL 5.1 will be hard masked in 30 days after
33 this news item is posted. It will remain in masked the tree for
34 3 months before removal.
