The 5.1 series of MySQL is going to be unmasked at the same time as the release
|
|
of this news item. When upgrading from an older major version (including 5.0),
|
|
you will be required to rebuild everything linked to the libmysqlclient.so.15
|
|
and libmysqlclient_r.so.15.
|
|
|
|
You can do this by installing app-portage/gentoolkit and running:
|
|
# revdep-rebuild --library libmysqlclient.so.15
|
|
# revdep-rebuild --library libmysqlclient_r.so.15
|
|
|
|
If you use the Portage 2.2 series, you may also use:
|
|
# emerge @preserved-rebuild
|
|
|
|
The official upgrade documentation is available here:
|
|
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/upgrading.html
|
|
|
|
Note that existing databases may need converting as well, again including those
|
|
upgrading from 5.0 to 5.1. Details are in the update documentation.
