Product: MySQL-client
Component: program
Summary: mysql_install_db doesn't look for mysqld-max
Version: 4.0.11a-4mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
This belongs to the MySQL-common package, but it was not in the selection list.
Problem: mysql_install_db fails to look for mysqld-max and therefore does not
initialize /var/lib/mysql/mysql properly.
Sorry that I only noticed this so late, but since /var/lib/mysql is kept on
uninstall, the problem only happens when you never installed MySQL before *and*
install MySQL-Max before MySQL. It is a bug in the original script and not by
Mandrake's package, but only became visible when MySQL-Max became undependend of
MySQL package. And reporting it the ordinary way would propagate to late for the
9.1 release.
I will attach a patch.
