The mysql-4.0.18-install-db-sh.diff inserts the follwing line into the mysql_install_db.sh script: echo "/etc/init.d/mysql start (you have to start the server first!) This results in an output to the user looking like this: To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands: /etc/init.d/mysql start (you have to start the server first!) You are first asked to start the server and then asked to start the server again! To fix this you should diff the first line to: echo "To do so issue the following commands:" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Read diff at supplied link Actual Results: Redundant text. Expected Results: no-redundant text As the header of the mysql_install_db.sh script gives MySQL AB the sole copyright I wasn't first aware that the script was modified by Gentoo. I guess this is quite common, but I find it a problem, should all modified files be labeled as such with a line in the header? This was first bugfiles at bugs.mysql.com Bug #4426. I have asked for the Gentoo line to be included, and corresponding intro text changed.
