I think it must auto-generate from .info
 and/or download from http://dev.mysql.com/doc/
 if +doc use flag exists

some info

$ emerge -pv mysql

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

This is the same in 4.0.25. They apparently removed the .texinfo file, according to the commit 
messages in Changelog.

I hope they can be put back somehow, I grep manual.txt at least once a day. For now I use the docs 
from 4.0.24.
Comment 2 Alex V. Koval 2005-11-04 03:41:26 UTC
Same here. I miss docs... I am going to download docs manually now from MySQL.org

There is no mysql 4.1.12 anymore in the tree, and dev-db/mysql doesn't have the "doc" USE flag anymore: closing this.
Best regards, CHTEKK.

> dev-db/mysql doesn't have the "doc" USE flag anymore

Is there a reason for that?  The issue here is that people want the docs but don't get them, not that there was a USE flag that didn't do anything.
