Description J 2012-04-28 17:28:49 UTC

The comments surrounding the package.mask masking of mariadb-5.5 date from July 2011.

mariadb-5.5.23 was recently (April 11th) released upstream as stable.

The package is ~arch masked so it seems reasonable to remove the hard mask.

Reproducible: Always

Please see dependant bugs first.

Comment 2 Paolo Pedroni 2012-05-31 14:56:13 UTC

I don't understand what bug #412851 (which is about mariadb-5.1 and readline) has to do with the unmasking of mariadb-5.5. Can you please explain?

indeed the readline.cmake seem unused in 5.5 (but still present)

CMakeCache.txt contains:
READLINE_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/usr/lib64/libreadline.so
//Use bundled readline
WITH_READLINE:BOOL=OFF
//Dependencies for the target
readline_LIB_DEPENDS:STATIC=general;-lpthread;general;/usr/lib64/libcurses.so;


upgrading to mariadb-5.5.23 should fix #412851

but tests are broken for out of tree builds (the standard in gentoo)

IMO, the tests should be structured like they are in the MySQL 5.5 ebuilds instead of the automake-based MariaDB 5.(1-3) ebuilds.
I've run them just fine that way.

My personal overlay, https://github.com/grknight/gentoo-mysql , reflects this.

The official mysql overlay has been updated with my changes thanks to Robin.

Please update and run tests on the MariaDB 5.5 builds now following the official instructions in the ebuild.

USE="minimal" is broken on >=MariaDB-5.5 (as well as >=mysql-5.5)

I'm working on it and will send patches to mysql team ASAP.
