- create a "mysql" user group and assign the mysql user account to that group
in the server postinstall section. (BUG 10984)
- backported some changes from the 4.1 RPM spec file (cleanups: removed the incomplete
Brazilian translations, more consequent use of macros)
references to the .texi file and the build targets that depend on manual.texi as the input file.
- added COPYING as a regular file instead of creating it during the build. This ensures that it's part
of the sources when pulling from BK (it used to be extracted from the manual)
- Removed a lot of cruft and unused/obsolete stuff from the Docs directory (e.g. Flags, Images)
- added a dummy mysql.info placeholder file (the info file is still used as the source to extract
various text files during the build). It will be replaced with a "real" file during the Bootstrap
process to create the official source distribution - the placeholder just satisfies build dependencies.
the rpm postinstall script must call mysql_install_db with --user=mysql,
and mysql_install_db must then pass this to mysqld. Otherwise, mysqld
runs as root, and if you have --log-bin=somewhere_out_of_var_lib_mysql
it creates binlog files owned by root in this dir, and this dir is not
fixed by the 'chmod mysql', so files remain owned by root, and later mysqld
(running as 'mysql') can't read them.
I'm hardcoding 'mysql' in the postinstall script, but it's already hardcoded
there in many places (see the useradd and chown) so it's ok.
thnx Paul.
<monty> can you get the above into configure and make Makefile.am patch
mysql.server.sh with the right values for mysql.server ?
<monty> or do you think we should just put the above in mysql.server.sh directly
<ramil> as you want
<monty> the last is kind of hard to do with variables, so lets put the
above in mysql.server.sh directly
Don't dump data for MRG_ISAM or MRG_MYISAM tables. (Bug #1846)
Ensure that 'lower_case_table_names' is always set on case insensitive file systems. (Bug #1812)
One can now configure MySQL as windows service as a normal user. (Bug #1802)
Database names is now compared with lower case in ON clause when lower_case_table_names is set. (Bug #1736)
IGNORE ... LINES option didn't work when used with fixed length rows. (Bug #1704)
Change INSERT DELAYED ... SELECT... to INSERT .... SELECT (Bug #1983)
Safety fix for service 'mysql start' (Bug #1815)
Add quoting for use `database` for mysqlbinlog
Removed test ins0000001
Add support for --replace for exec in mysqltest
Don't refer to install dir in mysqlbinlog.result

- modified support-files/MacOSX/Makefile.am to include the newly added files
in the source distribution
