Description Steffen Weber 2003-03-16 07:30:27 UTC

As MySQL 4.0.x is quite usable right now I think it should no longer be masked, but 
instead marked as unstable so that it is only installed by default when having set the 
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS flag. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

I have to agree, it runs more stable then mysql-3.23.x does.

This report doesnt make sense.

  It already *is* marked as unstable

> it is only installed by default when having set the ACCEPT_KEYWORDS flag

  It already *is* only installed by default if you want ~testing packages.

  Further, this is not released for production yet.  The most recent release
  in the tree is a "gamma" release.

  Also, you already know how to install it by either quelling package.mask
  or passing a full path to emerge.

  So no, it should still be in package.mask.
