Hello [1st RC issue - dpkg removes symlinks when upgrading from 3.23]
As discussed before in some corner cases we can do nothing except for showing the user an explanation what happened which has been done in 4.1.11a-2 and 4.0.24-10. [2nd RC issue - statically linked db3] > The new bug #308966 complains that mysql-server and libnss-db produce > segfault crashes as mysql-server-4.1 until now still had the obsolete BDB (aka > BerkeleyDB) engine enabled which uses a statically linked local db3 version. This affects only mysql-server-4.1, not the 4.0 branch. Option 3 changed: 1. just stay with 4.1.11a-2 and the bug 2. an upload without BDB support as 4.1.11a-3 3. an upload with Piotr Roszatyckis 8 line patch that mainly only adds --with-uniquename=_mysql to the configure options and runs sed over one header file (the actual diff is ~50 lines because the patch is been saved as dpatch file like all other patches, too) I verified that the patched package - runs in those cases where the old segfaultet - contains the unique-fied symbols only in /usr/sbin/mysqld and not in the libraries which would be problematic - succeeds the mysql benchmark and some basic tests I did The patch itself can be reviewed at http://www.lathspell.de/linux/debian/mysql/mysql-dfsg-4.1-4.1.11a.debian.diff So I'm in favour of 3. but could live with the other choices, too.
