Hi!
This was discussed a few months ago. The conclusion at that time was
(and it was certainly left open for further discussion) was:
1) Sounds great.
2) Not now.
Why? Because right now we are still fiddling too much with getting
things split.
What is the dark side of this? How will the testing framework keep up
(which is a valid concern).
Thoughts?
BTW you can go into drizzled/ today and type make install and it
works. Same checkout tree, but it has its own install. Maybe we do a
hybrid?
Cheers,
-Brian

Hi guys!
I've been running up against a problem when using MySQL, and that is
that there are no separation of packages for different roles. I
think we
need four packages:
drizzle-client:
Binaries for the clients that can connect to a Drizzle server
drizzle-client-dev:
All header files and libraries needed to write a Drizzle client
drizzle-server:
Binaries and libraries needed for running a Drizzle server
drizzle-server-dev:
All header files, libraries, and other utilities needed to build a
plugin for a Drizzle server
Of course we need a similar separation for Fedora, SuSE, etc.
Ideally, the different distributions should be possible to build using
make by just doing something like:
make dist-client
make dist-server
make dist-client-dev
make dist-server-dev
... which would then produce tar files for the different
distributions.
Then it is a simple matter of producing package files from each of
them
(I could build some for Solaris, since I've done that already).
What do you think?
Just my few cents,
Mats Kindahl
