Remove 2015-07-28-mysql-packaging-changes which is no longer relevant The client-libs USE flag turned out to be a failure and is being removed. There is nothing much for the user to be concerned with with that removal.

Because of this, you may have -to add a virtual/mysql or one of the providers; i.e. dev-db/mysql, -dev-db/mariadb, or dev-db/percona-server; to your world file if you -require a server to be installed locally. This will be phased in -slowly as other packages are updated. - -As for the server packages themselves, the "minimal" USE is being -replaced. The new USE flags are client-libs, server, and tools. -The server and tools flags are on by default to signify the primary -purpose of those builds. - -The primary provider for libraries will be a new package -dev-db/mysql-connector-c. Thorough testing did not turn up any -issues, but packagers are permitted to block any provider of -virtual/libmysqlclient that does not work correctly. Enabling the -client-libs USE on a server package may be the necessary solution for -the rare case of portage reporting a block on an incompatible provider. diff --git a/2015-07-28-mysql-packaging-changes/2015-07-28-mysql-packaging-changes.en.txt.asc b/2015-07-28-mysql-packaging-changes/2015-07-28-mysql-packaging-changes.en.txt.asc deleted file mode 100644 index e37aba0..0000000 --- a/2015-07-28-mysql-packaging-changes/2015-07-28-mysql-packaging-changes.en.txt.asc +++ /dev/null @@ -1,19 +0,0 @@ ------BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- -Version: GnuPG v2.0 - -iQJ8BAABCgBmBQJVttmhXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w -ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQ2NkMyRTQ0RUQ5MEUzMjc1OEU3RDU1QzBE -MUY3ODFFRkY5RjRBM0I2AAoJENH3ge/59KO2GW4P/3t1YRT/PWa0z1oADwwnMFwB -+JdqljZBdAyX4V5IIKNnOfHQBRkJ1O48tC2OqkGoJxo8anzlLU3SBjeFZzZvn0Mr -n22D+G2A1SAr4jufN9d7SfxR407yjIp3YWDvJJ/ATpjMpUbwFBcuH8AWMuAotCqx -H5vsjwKHkhcmkJvxKCJo7aA1GUeE6ctX1nwm8OGMBaQwbGQEXD+tA/Y2vDOskYUa -dZIgAZjt/bmoRd65jdkJUi/zW8c9nZ/UtiVFYDmopPiCfpeNqRZb+VEpI4OVQ4Rg -UNDWeAFsVda6rlQ77voBG/5lCvwLKt6H/0DdaRjXToTetfrUv605BapF/N2O7U9U -VxRv43afxEYMKZwOGccOzcfHv1Pnn/fT/4Wa6cQ26VlXXl8jmzV+7hJyun5qUS5S -GYE2nbaRqVoQ+mIQg/J6QHcGcJH/GDL3dAu3ZPmW5+Gr7q6viF1hEPsGdtByOaMa -bQvga9q3z+EiWGnzgWKB+GnMX9bcdaPXLio4Lbbb726hrcEWYkaPCigxcexbjnWB -9B76SV70hLxy1sZLfblSx+kE7JnQu1D+PWs6XAxHCI7UqT5vGVzS8iyJ6/or+x0X -kSkvwfBu4F7DSMWYOp4iPKpw555+XqhWgX4sFLEjXLluyz0lcIvrAUGzS3PVC2cb -i41hyr5MGHfNvHyU6nke -=RNTw ------END PGP SIGNATURE-----
