Description Will McQueen 2005-12-06 15:30:19 UTC

I would like to have mysqlmanager manage my mysql processes, however the init
script included with the 5.0.15 ebuild is crazy.  I actually flipped to using an
old init script I had from 5.0.14 and substituted the starting of safe_mysqld
with mysqlmanager, as well as shutting down via the mysqlmanager.pid.

I'd rather not maintain my own init, so could mysqlmanager be added to the
gentoo mysql.init file?

Information on mysqlmanager can be found at mysql.com:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/instance-manager.html

Thanks,
Will

There are two new files in $PORTDIR/dev-db/mysql/files/ :
- mysqlmanager-slot.rc6     ==> /etc/init.d/mysqlmanager
- mysqlmanager-slot.conf.d  ==> /etc/conf.d/mysqlmanager
These ones will be installed with mysql >= 5.0.16

Thanks for mentioning it
