Title: MySQL 5.1 unmasking and upgrade procedures

Revision: 2
News-Item-Format: 1.0
Display-If-Installed: <dev-db/mysql-5.1

The 5.1 series of MySQL is going to be unmasked at the same time as the release
of this news item. When upgrading from an older major version (including
5.0), you will be required to rebuild everything linked to the
libmysqlclient.so.15.

You can do this by installing app-portage/gentoolkit and running:
# revdep-rebuild --library libmysqlclient.so.15

If you use the Portage 2.2 series, you may also use:
# emerge @preserved-rebuild

The official upgrade docs are available here:
