Bug #15972480
This is the change for 5.5:
a cleanup in the way "libmysqld.so" is created.
(Patches were adapted for 5.5 previously.)
Originally, the ".so" was created by taking all modules in
"libmysqld.a", after removing some few which caused unresolved
references.
This is no good idea, rather "ld" should be used to follow all
references from some few start modules.
At the same time, the ".so" version needed to be corrected:
The original "0.0.1" is both wrong and risky.
Rather, the server version is used to identify the ".so" file,
but for linkage the first two levels are sufficient (so upgrades
are possible without re-building the embedded application).
The patch "mysql-chain-certs.patch" needs to be adapted
to code changes in "vio/viosslfactories.c" which were
done in MySQL 5.5.
Then, the patch can be re-enabled in the spec file.
A change to "vio/viosslfactories.c" in August, 2012,
broke a patch which is to be applied during the build
of ULN RPMs.
The patch file is
"packaging/rpm-uln/mysql-chain-certs.patch"
This change bypasses the problem by not trying to apply
the patch.
This is a regression and must be fixed, not bypassed.
