Bug 364623 – >=dev-db/mariadb-5.1.50 does not build PBXT engine

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Brian Evans (RETIRED) 2011-04-24 02:41:51 UTC]

The ebuilds for mariadb both in portage and overlay do not build the PBXT engine even if the USE pbxt flag is enabled.

It appears as if the mariadb included PBXT does not have the dynamic options required listed in plug.in. Yet, the eclass tries to use it as such.

Running configure on the ebuild using "ebuild /usr/portage/dev-db/mariadb/mariadb-5.1.50.ebuild clean configure", provides the following excerpt:


Reproducible: Always

1. Build mariadb with USE=pbxt
2.

Any progress on this?

The only solution I can think of is to force PBXT to be installed statically.
If a user sets the flag, they are probably going to use it.

This would mean a migration away from the plugin by either:
1) Using the UNINSTALL PLUGIN command before installation.
2) Having the user remove the mysql.plugin table file.  MySQL/MariaDB should start fine without it and force you to run mysql_upgrade (which should be done anyway) to fix issues.

This appears to be fixed in the overlay.

Recently built MariaDB 5.2.10 with PBXT just fine.

This should have been fixed with this commit - git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/mysql.git;a=commitdiff;h=86ac0f0297371eafc4c1f7e7c0341fa8c0d28431

It seems that it is broken again by this commit - git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/mysql.git;a=commitdiff;h=851a54be8a1d3c91aa1382fa91ea11519d96bdc6

I've talked to Robin and reverted the commit.
Please verify that it's working again for you.

[Comment 6 Brian Evans (RETIRED) 2012-02-15 14:14:48 UTC]

Yes that part works.

However, currently a "fi" is missing on line 137 of mysql-v2.eclass from commit http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/mysql.git;a=commitdiff;h=1ecca12f62c722873c0c766fd4b0500c11b08f51

This breaks all v2 based eclasses.

Thank you for the heads up. This is now fixed.

I confirm it works on 5.5.23.
