Yes, I suppose so. I cannot say who will fix it, though, we or Percona. Generally we avoid having plugin type in the plugin name. XtraDB isn't called "engine_xtradb". One simply writes create table ... engine=xtradb not create table ... engine=engine_xtradb Similarly, authentication plugin names describe authentication method only, for example: create user ... identified via pam create user ... identified via unix_socket and so on. > > A plugin can not have two names, but technically it's possible to have > > two plugins in the same .so file, they could share all the code and only > > differ in names.
