Ah, but that document does little to answer my specific question which,
due to the fact that some people can actually be constructive, has not
only been answered, but it seems the original issue has been resolved.
To those people I am thankful.

now I have to figure out how I am going to downgrade.

Is there a guide or something on how to downgrade from version 5 to 4?
I'm assuming that I can't just point 4 to my database files and expect
them to work.

A very descriptive changelog... Any idea what "does not work" means? .
Seems to work pretty well here.

  mysql-5.0.16-r3.ebuild:

I'm confused.  MySQL 5 seems to have been available on ~amd64 for quite
sometime.  I've already converted my database files the the 5.x format.
Now all-of-the-sudden MySQL 5 is marked -amd64 so now I must downgrade.
Is this intentional?

Pretty please *don't* use ldconfig in ebuilds.

ldconfig should have created these symlinks, unless something was wrong
with the .so.15.0.0.

[gentoo-dev] my apologies for the mess with this release of MySQL 5.0.16

[Francesco R.]

my apologies for the mess with this release of MySQL 5.0.16 and for the 
one will come with the dev-db/mysql-4.1.15-r1 ebuild

Here is the relevant list of bugs opened (and closed) as a consequence 
of the new ebuild.

[Bug 113451] mysql-4.1.15 re-keyworded as -* with no note in changelog 
as to why
[Bug 113440] typo in mysql-5.0.16-r2 init script
[Bug 113356] /etc/init.d/mysql script fails to start server in 
mysql-5.0.16
[Bug 113352] mysql-5.0.16-r1 does not 
create /usr/lib{64}/libmysqlclient.so.15 symlink
[Bug 113334] mysql MD5 mysql-extras-20050920.tar.bz2 VERIFY FAILED! (old 
ebuild has correct value)

If you installed 5.0.16, the 1st and don't want to re-emerge it, follow 
these steps:
(may need to adjust the path accordingly with ARCH and personal 
settings)

# emerge --sync
# cp /usr/portage/dev-db/mysql/files/mysql-slot.rc6 /etc/init.d/mysql
# chmod +x /etc/init.d/mysql
# cd /usr/lib{64}
# for i in libmysqlclient.so libmysqlclient_r.so ; do \
 for j in "" .15 .15.0 .15.0.0 ; do \
  echo ln -s /usr/lib/${i}.15.0.0 ${i}${j} \
 ; done \
; done
# chown -R mysql:mysql /var/run/mysqld/

Francesco R.
