Since syncing yesterday and emerge -u world, I now get mysql-5.0.16-r1 when I emerge mysql. It doesn't have the docs built either regardless of what USE variable are in force. I've took the tips about /etc/portage/package.use syntax and arrangement so it now is correct (I think): cat /etc/portage/package.use mail-mta/sendmail mbox sasl milter dev-db/mysql mysql mysqli doc ndb-doc dev-backup/bacula mysql mysqli doc But now I've got worse provlems than no documentation. I can't even start this install of mysql. /etc/init.d/mysql status * status: stopped /etc/init.d/mysql start * working on 0 * Starting mysqld0 (/etc/mysql/my.cnf) ... .......... * MySQL NOT started (0) Here is where the docs would be quite handy... Anyone here who has perused mysql.com will know it is a difficult task to find basic information there. You can get error messages in 12 of the worlds languages but can't find out how to get a basic setup running. Someone said the docs were a separate package but `esearch' doesn't turn up any in the present portage. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
