Description Andreas Girgensohn 2010-03-27 19:50:29 UTC
Description of problem:

mytop doesn't show proper statistics with more recent MySQL server versions.

How reproducible: always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run mytop with a MySQL server 5.0.2 or newer.

Actual results:

qps and similar statistics are zero.

Expected results:

The statistics should have meaningful values.

Additional info:

This is due to a change in MySQL's SHOW STATUS.
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/show-status.html

Below is a patch that fixes the problem.  The use of version comments should make mytop still work with older MySQL servers.
