As the subject say, |
2 |
In less than 24 hours slotted mysql ebuilds will be unmasked, to point |
3 |
the finger they are: |
4 |
=dev-db/mysql-4.1.16-r30 |
5 |
=dev-db/mysql-5.0.18-r30 |
6 |
|
7 |
There is a migration guide [1] that explain some of the magic, thanks to |
8 |
the editors: Chris White, Jan Kundrát, Joshua Saddler to make it human |
9 |
readable, beat me instead if it broke your box. |
10 |
|
11 |
A third one, mysql-5.1.4_alpha-r30, as you can guess this will stay |
12 |
masked (and yes I did noticed many days ago that 5.1.5 has been |
13 |
released, just rename the ebuild if you want to give it a try). |
14 |
|
15 |
The un-slotted counterparts will disappear from the tree at the same time: |
16 |
=dev-db/mysql-4.1.16 |
17 |
=dev-db/mysql-5.0.17 |
18 |
=dev-db/mysql-5.0.18 |
19 |
|
20 |
The following will survive, without being slotted, either because too |
21 |
old or because they are the last marked stable in the portage tree. |
22 |
=dev-db/mysql-3.23.58-r1 |
23 |
=dev-db/mysql-4.0.25-r2 |
24 |
=dev-db/mysql-4.0.26 |
25 |
=dev-db/mysql-4.1.14 |
26 |
|
27 |
At the end February the mysql herd will cooperate with the arch's teams |
28 |
to test and mark stable the following: |
29 |
=dev-db/mysql-4.0.26 |
30 |
=dev-db/mysql-4.1.16-r30 |
31 |
=dev-db/mysql-5.0.18-r30 |
32 |
at that point in time older version will be removed too (3.23.58 is |
33 |
another story). |
34 |
|
35 |
Last notice: |
36 |
emerge -pv =mysql-5.0.18 =mysql-5.0.18-r30 |
37 |
Calculating dependencies ...done! |
38 |
[ebuild NS ] dev-db/mysql-5.0.18 USE="berkdb cluster extraengine |
39 |
max-idx-128 perl ssl utf8 -big-tables -debug -minimal -static" 0 kB |
40 |
[ebuild R ] dev-db/mysql-5.0.18-r30 USE="berkdb cluster extraengine |
41 |
max-idx-128 perl ssl -big-tables -debug -minimal -srvdir -static" |
42 |
|
43 |
As you can see the non-standard "utf8" use flag has been removed, |
44 |
nothing bad, it was a easy replace in the my.cnf config file from |
45 |
"latin1" to "utf8" and vice-versa. |
46 |
the "srvdir" is easy too, it add support for "datadir" in |
47 |
"/srv/localhost/mysql" but only for fresh install (see glep 20) |
