directory - these files are now maintained in the mysqldoc
repository and included in the source distribution during the
release build. Updated the configure.in script and Makefiles to
create the man page file list at build time
- Updated the file list in the RPM spec file to include all currently
available man pages (this can not be done with wildcards, as
the man pages are spread across several subpackages. However, RPM
warns about unpackaged files, so newly added man pages can be
spotted)
- added a usermod call to assign a potential existing mysql user to the
correct user group (BUG#12823)
- Save the perror binary built during Max build so it supports the NDB
error codes (BUG#13740)
- added a separate macro "mysqld_group" to be able to define the
user group of the mysql user seperately, if desired.
- create a "mysql" user group and assign the mysql user account to that group
in the server postinstall section. (BUG 10984)
- backported some changes from the 4.1 RPM spec file (cleanups: removed the incomplete
Brazilian translations, more consequent use of macros)
"--with static" or "--define '_with_static 1'" to the RPM build options.
Static linking really only makes sense when linking against the specially patched
glibc 2.2.5.
when doing "make install" (they are not needed/useful) outside the build tree. Added
"mysql_client_test" to the "MySQL-bench" RPM.
- some small RPM spec file improvements (more variables than hard-coded values, cleanups)
- Added a stub scripts/fill_help_tables.sql file to satisfy the build dependencies
- Removed scripts/fill_help_tables.sh and updated scripts/Makefile.am accordingly
The fill_help_tables.sql stub will be replaced with the approriate content when building the
official source distribution via Bootstrap - it's now autogenerated on the documentation server
and will be copied into place before packing up the source distribution.
references to the .texi file and the build targets that depend on manual.texi as the input file.
- added COPYING as a regular file instead of creating it during the build. This ensures that it's part
of the sources when pulling from BK (it used to be extracted from the manual)
- Removed a lot of cruft and unused/obsolete stuff from the Docs directory (e.g. Flags, Images)
- added a dummy mysql.info placeholder file (the info file is still used as the source to extract
various text files during the build). It will be replaced with a "real" file during the Bootstrap
process to create the official source distribution - the placeholder just satisfies build dependencies.
static linking against an unpatched glibc 2.3 is causing trouble
- add "glibc23" to the release suffix in this case
- re-ordered the Changelog that was messed up by a BK merge
(RPM is picky about this)
