I'll fix the post_install message. Should I do an announcement? Would be nice, also include the link to upstream documentation when you do so.

I added a message to post_update() for this. It's not just mysql_upgrade. You'll need to have then new mysql running first, but it won't start before upgrading. MySQL released documentation about exact upgrade instructions for this, you'll need to run MySQL in skip grant table mode once and perform mysql_upgrade with that.

Afaik mysql will listen on all interfaces by default then which does not seem to be a good idea. At least restrict it to localhost. -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] binutils-2.21 toolchain rebuild
by Allan McRae 22 Dec '10

22 Dec '10

Here is a summary of the changes: binutils-2.21-1 - major upstream update - provide gold linker as ld.gold (default remains the usual bfd linker) glibc-2.12.2-1 - *minimum kernel version required = 2.6.27* - bump to latest upstream - build completely outside source directory - remove patches included upstream - update patch for origin privilege exploit from Fedora - keep scsi.h - provide gai.conf (FS#21742) linux-api-headers-2.6.36.2-1 - bump to latest upstream - remove scsi.h (back in glibc) gcc-4.5.2-1 - upstream update - removed de_DE check as - fix/clarify some pkgdesc values libtool-2.4-2 - gcc verbump rebuild You can see the current toolchain testsuite status at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Allan/Toolchain . There are some failures there that I am still looking into, but nothing to be concerned about... One binutils issues that people may want to keep an eye out for is http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12327 . This only affects people building kernels with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y (not used in the Arch kernels) who will get a boot panic. Other than that, the binutils update seems relatively issue free. I have been running it on my system for the last week while waiting on the glibc and gcc releases without noticing any issues. Allan

[arch-dev-public] MySQL 5.5
by Andrea Scarpino 21 Dec '10

Hi all, I am trying to update mysql to 5.5.8. It uses cmake now. I built and successfully installed it on my system. It seems to work, but I won't broke any Arch Linux system and I want to know the right procedure on how to proceed with this major update. Also, before I put the packages in [testing], I'd like if someone can take a look to them or try the new packages. PKGBUILD is here[1]; packages are here[2]. A diff between my PKGBUILD and the current one is here[3]. Remember that you need to run mysql_upgrade as root after the installation and with mysql running. I added a message to post_update() for this.
