To what extent should these work as drop-in replacements for the stock Debian 3.6.8 builds? Would adding your repos then "apt-get update"-ing to your code likely work on a working server or likely break horribly?



Actually those packages have a "small" defect. The problem has come to my attention just recently by Ian Christian who has droped me an email.

The problem is that the hash driver is not included in the package. I only use the MySQL driver and so i didn't see it comming. So basically if you use the hash driver your installation will be crippled. If not, my guess is that it all goes well. I preformed the update from 3.6.8 to that unofficial version using those packages without breaking anything, but i would advise you to test on a non-live system before.

If you can wait a few days i'll repackage that same version with the fix. Let me know if that's the case.

Thanks in advance,


Hugo Monteiro.
