Doesn\'t say anything about what to do if you have MySQL set up to accept
only unix sockets instead of TCP sockets. I *think* that the correct thing
to do would be either to have \'$sys_dbhost=\"\";\' (empty) or comment out
the entire line. But the answer to this question depends on whether
\"localhost\" is a default that will be used if the line is commented out,
and more importantly on whether savane can operate with MySQL in such a mode
in the first place. It is quite possible that my DB-related problems
reported previously (savane support tracker #711-713) are because of this.
My original savane 1.0.7 install had this line commented out. In this new
1.1 install, I have changed my MySQL config to allow TCP connections from
\"localhost\", and set the relevant savannah.conf.pl line to:
our $sys_dbhost=\"localhost\";
We\'ll see if that has any effect on issues #711-713.
