Trusty has reached its end of standard support. ** Changed in: mysql-5.6 (Ubuntu Trusty) Status: Triaged => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of नेपाली भाषा समायोजकहरुको समूह, which is subscribed to Xenial.

Since this is a security mechanism that has been requested by users, we would also like to backport this plugin to MySQL 5.6 and 5.7.

Impact == This functionality is implemented in a plugin. The plugin is not loaded, and the functionality will not be activated unless the DBA explicitly activates it. Regression potential The potential for regression is considered low for the following reasons: - The new functionality is in a plugin that 1) is not loaded by default, and 2) can be unloaded if it causes problems. - The change does not introduce new SQL syntax, and no existing syntax is affected. - The plugin is new, so it's not used by any other packages in Ubuntu.
