MySQL and Postgresql appear in the freebsd with many different versions. Normally ports have only one version (the latest) and you upgrade with portupgrade.
Sometimes a mysql-client or postgresql-client is installed as a dependency of another port, (e.g. a Davical install today installed postgresql-client-8.2.15_1 as a dependency whereas postgresql-server already has a 8.3 and 8.4 version in the ports now) Is it save to install the newest server version? or should one install the same version as the client one already has ? Both for mysql and postgresq server, the corresponding client is a dependendy. I e.g. you already have mysql-client-5.0.90 but no mysql server yet, and you install mysql-server-5.5.2., will it install mysql-client-5.5.2 alongside the existing mysql-client-5.0.90 or upgrade it ? _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
