I had previously added this to mythfilldatabase. I guess they removed it. Either way, don't you think this should be an exercise left for the user? Was this a patch to the source? mythfilldatabase is a binary (not sure what it used to be). If it was patched source, I guess this isn't necessary... It's nice, but I don't think it's necessary. Periodic system maintenance is the job of the user, not the ebuild, right? Anyway, if users want to maintain/optimize their database, there's a mysqlcheck command that does it without all the perl hacking. I have a cron job to run mysqlcheck --optimize --all-databases on a regular basis. I agree with #c3 |
