Running it now - up to the revdep-rebuild stage and no problems. On an
existing mysql installation, the emerge stops with a message and points
you to an upgrade guide
("http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/mysql-upgrading.xml";). There is a
paragraph (with warnings) at the bottom for a faster method. Iam using
the implied "its safer" way!
The slower process involves taking a copy of your existing msql
installation (binaries+databases), emerge -C'ing mysql, rm -rf'ing the
remnants, install/rebuilding deps and then restoring the DB. Count on
downtime!
