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.
The script is different from what's used on unixes.
It was not playing the table insertion script (mysql_system_tables_data.sql),
although it was checking for the presence of this script.
Fixed by re-enabling the lookup for this file and replaying it at bootstrap
time. Note that on the Unixes "SELECT @@hostname" does return a fully qualified
name, whereas on Windows it returns only a hostname.
So by default we're filtering records in the mysql.user table until we ensure
this is fixed.
Better Windows support in the scripts directory
mysql_config.pl.in, mysql_install_db.pl.in:
New Perl version of Unix shell script, mainly for Windows
Many files in scripts directory:
Use default Perl location "#!/usr/bin/perl" instead of the build host path
