So looks like calling /sw/bin/mysql_install_db has been no longer safe.
I'm going to delete these lines, or to make them conditional,
like calling mysql_install_db only if datadir is empty.
By the way, for upgrade users, there is /sw/bin/mysql_upgrade{,_shell}.
Maybe I should also add such lines into PostInstScript.
Thank you for your report,
