Description Jonathan Aquilina 2014-04-03 17:59:13 UTC
I am using mysql work bench which also seems to pull in mysql server. I am trying to do a table dump on a db running mysql 5.5 running a different linux distribution, and I get the following message

mysqldump is version 5.1.70, but the MySQL Server to be dumped has version 5.5.35-0ubuntu0.12.04.2. Because the version of mysqldump is older than the server, some features may not be backed up properly. It is recommended you upgrade your local MySQL client programs, including mysqldump to a version equal to or newer than that of the target server. The path to the dump tool must then be set in Preferences -> Administrator -> Path to mysqldump Tool:

I did an eshowkw mysql and the output is the following

eshowkw mysql

From what I can gather there is no 64bit amd ebuild for 5.5.32 Is it possible to have this made available?

One thing to add is that this causes compatability issues with other distros that would be using 5.5 by default.
