[cross posted to -devel and -users. reply to -devel] [ Todai is cc'd since they maintain the older mysql-unified ]
I've managed to get the latest stable mysql (5.5.19) to build on 10.7 and pass all its tests. However, I don't use mysql and have no idea if it actually works. So I'm putting this out to people who might find a modern mysql in Fink to be useful and can actually test it. You can find my .info and .patch files here: <http://cvs.snaggledworks.com/viewvc.cgi/fink/3rdparty/main/finkinfo/database/> Things to test: 1) ability to read/write databases. I had to manually move $datadir (which was being put into %p/data), so there's a small chance this might be an issue 2) 10.5 and 10.6. I've only tested on 10.7. i386 and ppc users will probably need to modify the Set*FLAGS fields to not declare x86_64. At least one test that was disabled in x86_64 has a i386 version that might fail there and would need to be disabled as well. Things left to do: 1) The conflicts/replaces fields for the SplitOffs need to be added, but since I don't know the exact relationship between the splitoffs, I have not added them for now. 2) Desc* needs to be updated since it carries baggage from really old mysql packages. So, please test and give feedback on fink-devel. Note: tests take 3+ hours. Hanspeter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Write once. Port to many.
