(a) No, there is no such file /opt/local/var/run/mysql8/mysql.sock !
After loading mysql8-server, the only files in /opt/local/var/run/mysql8 are
.turd_mysql8-server and mysqld.pid.
How is that file created?
(b) Manually specifying the socket gives the same kind of error as before:
sudo port load mysql8-server
---> Loading startupitem 'mysql8-server' for mysql8-server
mysql -S /opt/local/var/run/mysql8/mysqld.sock
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/opt/local/var/run/mysql8/mysqld.sock' (2)
