We were running mysql 4 until 2009 or so. $wgDBmysql4 is always true "for compatibility with extensions that might be checking". Seems $wgDBmysql5 should follow the same fate. Anyway $wgDBmysql5 does a useful task. Suddenly sending SET NAMES utf8 to everybody would break utf8-in-latin1 installs (beginning with WMF servers). A second reason to avoid subqueries was that 'they were inefficient'. Which ones did you want to add? If we don't have a direct gain from dropping support, I'd keep it in. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
