Hi, we run a dual opteron 246 system with pure64 here for 80 days now. the server only runs mysql 4.1. i always use the latest official mysql 4.1 binary "mysql-standard-4.1.7-unknown-linux-x86_64-glibc23.tar.gz"
after changing pure64 to gcc-3.4 in apt/sources.list and dist-upgrade, mysql always hang. tables got locked but not unloked, so all queries blocked. also trying to killall mysqld wasn't able - it just killed nothing and the server kept running. does anybody know why this happens? did i miss anything important to upgrade? (i read something about apt-get --reinstall - how to to this with all packages? it always wants a list of packages...) we reinstalled the whole system using pure64 and it works again, so it must be something related to gcc-3.4. it would be great it someone could tell me how to upgrade to gcc-3.4 from pure64 so everything just works fine but a with a little more performance :) thanks a lot, corin
