Description of problem: Berkeley DB support has been removed from the latest update. This means existing BDB databases do not work after the update. People scream, cry, and jump off high structures as a result. This is not good. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mysql-server-3.23.58-1.9 Previous version was mysql-3.23.56-1.80 (box was originally RHL 8.0) How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. su - root;mysql 2. show variables like 'have_bdb'; Actual results: NO Expected results: YES Additional info: To fix: Add: --with-berkeley-db Remove: --with-berkeley-db-includes --with-berkeley-db-libs (mysql needs included patched bdb implementation) from spec file.
Actually, in RHL 9, bdb support was not built in (but it was in RHL 8.0). There were some changes made to the spec file by individuals and it seems that the --with-berkeley-db portion was removed. Bummer. We'll have to fix this... thanks for letting us know.
Fixed. I re-enabled testing on ia64 as well. This will be available in rawhide this week.
