Bug 17770 – MySQL 4 declared production ready, could it be removed from package.mask?

• Status: VERIFIED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Robin Johnson 2003-03-18 15:18:01 UTC]

MySQL has been declared production ready. Could it please get removed from 
package.mask and just left in the unstable ~arch tree?

I've been using it already on several pre-production sites on Gentoo with no 
issues at all, esp. now that bug 15099 has included -DUSE_OLD_FUNCTIONS and 
this has removed the majority of the issues.

The only possible remaining issue with people merging MySQL 4 is that people 
need to rebuild everything that links to the MySQL libraries as they change.

Well great, somebody just needs to add 4.0.12 and remove it from package.mask now.

As far as the fallout goes well theres some rebuilder type scripts
others have done.  See libpng/files/libpng-update*.sh and
dev-lang/perl/fileslibperl_rebuilder for the idea(s)

Then there's always the stragglers that'll appear out of the dark.

mysql-4.0.12.ebuild (update)

copied from 4.0.11a-r1 and made some small fixes.

needs in ${FILESDIR}:
  my.cnf 
  mysql-4.0.4-install-db-sh.diff
  mysql-4.0-my-print-defaults.diff
  mysql-4.0-mysqld-safe-sh.diff
  mysql-4.0-nisam.h.diff
  mysql-4.0.rc6

Did not check, if these patches are still needed.

Merges fine here, runs okay, did not test it thorougly.

mysql-update-libs.sh

Run after merging to check some outdated lib-dependencies.

Copied and adjusted from libpng-update-libs.sh.

Someone please check if I grep for the right libs (and all of them).

mysql-update-bins.sh

Run after merging to check some outdated bin-dependencies.

Copied and adjusted from libpng-update-bins.sh.

Someone please check if I grep for the right libs (and all of them).

Little scriptlet

whoa there no need to search all of /usr ;-)

i think this little thing i've made should cover it all...

try it out.

ooops posted it twice... they're both the same thing.

dunno about the timeline for doing this.  could probably
be done now that we're in the so called upgrade phase.

[Comment 8 Robin Johnson 2003-03-19 19:48:55 UTC]

nice script woodchip.

some of the libpng and openssl 0.9.7 bugs needed a similar script to find things that needed to get rebuilt, so taking a look at those as well with the script wouldn't hurt.

[Comment 9 Donny Davies (RETIRED) 2003-03-22 15:54:31 UTC]

removed from package.mask as of mysql-4.0.12

i added my little rebuilder.sh script too.

Closing old bugs.
