(make relies GNU extentions). The patch was partially
backport from 6.0.
Original comment:
bug#30708: make relies GNU extensions. Now that we no longer use
BitKeeper we can safely remove the SCCS handling with no loss of
functionality.
- Update/fix file layouts for each package type, add new types for
native package formats including deb, rpm and svr4.
- Build all plugins, including debug versions
- Update compiler flags to match current release
- Add missing @VAR@ expansions
- Install correct mysqclient library symlinks
- Fix icc/ia64 builds
- Fix install of libmysqld-debug
- Don't include mysql_embedded
- Remove unpackaged manual pages to avoid missing files warnings
- Don't install mtr's test suite
using cmake option INSTALL_LAYOUT=STANDALONE would produce the layout as in
tar.gz or zip packages.
INSTALL_LAYOUT=UNIX will produce unixish install layout (with mysqld being in sbin subdirectory , libs in lib/mysql etc). This layout is used for RPM packages.
Subtle differences in both packages unfortunately lead to the need to recompile MySQL to use with other package type - as otherwise for example default plugins or data directories would be wrong set.
There are numerous other variables that allow fine-tuning packaging layout. (INSTALL_BINDIR, INSTALL_LIBDIR , INSTALL_PLUGINDIR etc).
This options are different from autotools as they do not expect full paths to directories, but only subdirectory of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
There are 2 special options that expect full directory paths
- MYSQL_DATADIR that defines default MYSQL data directory (autotools equivalent
is --localstatedir)
- SYSCONFDIR can be added to search my.cnf search path (autotools equivalent is --sysconfdir)
This is a partial correction to the original fix for bug#37098
Get rid of "Installed (but unpackaged)" files in the RPM build
which used a wrong variable.
Mostly, this affected files (programs, scripts, and manual pages)
which got built during a RPM build but were not listed in the
appropriate "%files" section of the "spec" file.
This is fixed now, they are added.
To make this consistent, this patch also makes the build of "innochecksum"
(and its inclusion in a tar.gz or other package) depend on whether InnoDB
is configured in the build.
Also, some tools to create Windows packages are irrelevant in any binary
Unix package (not the sources !), and so they are deleted before packaging.

directory - these files are now maintained in the mysqldoc
repository and included in the source distribution during the
release build. Updated the configure.in script and Makefiles to
create the man page file list at build time
- Updated the file list in the RPM spec file to include all currently
available man pages (this can not be done with wildcards, as
the man pages are spread across several subpackages. However, RPM
warns about unpackaged files, so newly added man pages can be
spotted)
manpage) turned out as a major overhaul of all man pages:
- renamed all *.1 files to *.1.in to act as templates which are being
processed at build time
- replaced some hard-coded values with place holder that are being
replaced with the proper values at build time
- Updated list of available man pages in the SEE ALSO section and added a
hint to the manual for more details
- Added a BUGS section to all pages, referring to the bugs DB
- Updated some obsolete URLs and mail addresses
The actual content of these man pages should probably be cross-checked for
correctness, though...
