but even if this script called as /bin/mysql_install_db
it is still standard install and scripts are in /usr/share/
(but not in the /share/)
2. fix of bindir path
Avoid introducing new dependencies or new syntax.
That is, don't use $(...) and don't assume dirname is present.
And remove unsighty /foo/bar/../xyz from the path. Use dirname
instead of ../
1. detect resolveip location, don' assume it's in $basedir/bin
2. don't guess $scriptdir to (incorrectly) construct the $0 path
3. rename find_in_basedir -> find_in_dirs, don't prepend $basedir
automatically. This allows to use identical path lists in
find_in_dirs and in cannot_find_file.
4. move search path lists to CMakeLists.txt to avoid specifying the
same path list twice (in find_in_dirs and in cannot_find_file).
In Debian, the default install is made more secure by omitting the anonymous
user and by making the root account authenticate by unix socket
authentication instead of the default password-less root. However, Debian
hard-codes this change in mysql_install_db, which breaks that program for
other users.
This commit instead implements new general options for mysql_install_db that
can be used by anyone to similarly perform a more secure install:
--skip-auth-anonymous-user: omits the anonymous user.
--auth-root-authentication-method=normal: Keeps the existing behaviour
with a password-less root account. Currently on by default.
--auth-root-socket-user=USER
--auth-root-authentication-method=socket: creates the MariaDB root user
with the name USER (defaults to 'root') and using unix socket
authentication. This way, only that user has MariaDB root access
after install.
The idea with --auth-root-authentication-method=normal is that
applications that need this behaviour can give that option explicitly.
Then eventually we could make --auth-root-authentication-method=socket
the default, giving a more secure default installation.
Note that it is perfectly possible to do a secure install with
--auth-root-authentication-method=normal. For example, installing a
private server just for local access by a single OS-level user, by
using --skip-networking and putting the connection socket in a
location without public access. So it is important to preserve this
API for backwards compatibility.
* Out of tree build: mysql_install_db to see all .sql files
Since MDEV-7875 (da0991c6), not all sql source files are in the source
directory, maria_add_gis_sp_bootstrap.sql is in the build directory.
This corrects mysql_install_db{.sh} to be aware of the differing
locations.

* Fix undefined database test error when running mysql_install_db
When using mariaDb in docker mode it can fail as it calls mysql_install_db but as we are going through a slightly different install process the test database has not been created, therefore we should fall back to the mysql database as per https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/mariadb-10112-mysql_install_db-aborts-on-unkown-file-test/
* Also fix mysql_install_db.pl.in
When building RPMs and using the "rpmbuild" automatic scanning for
Perl dependencies, it might interpret "use hostnames" in the
"mysql_config.pl" script usage comment as a Perl "use" statement.
And then makes the resulting RPMs depends on a non-existing module
Perl "hostnames". The comment was changed to prevent this.
MDEV-6281 Typo in mysql_install_db scripts
and collateral changes:
* remove mysql_tableinfo.1 and references to it (there's no mysql_tableinfo)
* for debian: create manpages for mysqlrepair, mysqlanalyze, mysqloptimize
(as symlinks for mysqlcheck.1, just as executables are symlinks to mysqlcheck)
* remove mysqlmanager.8 and references to it
* correct "very long line" error in mysqladmin.1
* simplify and fix table formatting in mysqlbinlog.1 and mysqldump.1
* fix a typo in the help text in mysql_install_db
* aria_chk: say "for Linux on x86_64", like other tools do
(not "for Linux at x86_64")
* add simple manpages for aria_* utilities
