Did you update to databases/mysql55-client before trying this?
mysqlXX-server depends on mysqlXX-client for the libmysql shared library
and related header files.
Generally to switch from mysql 5.4 to mysql 5.5 you'ld do something like
this:
0) Backups, fasting, ritual cleansing, sacrifice of black cockerel,
you know the drill.
1) Stop MySQL -- plus any web servers or whatever that access mysql.
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server stop
# ...
2) If there is any mention of MYSQL related variables in
/etc/make.conf, particularly those referring to version numbers,
comment them out.
3) Upgrade mysql-client:
# portmaster -o databases/mysql55-client 'mysql-client-5.4.*'
4) Upgrade mysql-server:
# portmaster -o databases/mysql55-server 'mysql-server-5.4.*'
5) If you've got them installed, upgrade mysql-scripts:
# portmaster -o databases/mysql55-scripts 'mysql-scripts-5.4.*'
6) Upgrade anything that links against libmysql.so -- you can use
sysutils/bsdadminscripts which contains a handy script to tell
you what applications on your system are affected. Or, for the
lazy and those with excess spare time:
# portmaster -r databases/mysql55-client
(but this will do far more work than necessary)
7) Restart mysql and run the supplied program to update schemas etc.
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server start
# mysql_upgrade
8) Restart any applications that use mysql.
9) Test.
Cheers,
Matthew
