There were just two people on the irc channel trying to install mysql +server. This didn't work because the mysql port depends on DarwinPortsStartup, which they couldn't fetch.
This makes me wonder: should the "mysql" port still be around, or ought it be removed? Both it and mysql3 report their version as 3.23.58. The differences are:
Personally, I'd be in favor if ditching the mysql port if it duplicates mysql3. But personally I use mysql5, so I may be missing something... ;)
I'm not sure there is a very good reason to maintain a working mysql3 port - it's not recommended for use anymore.
do we have a policy about upstream'ed out-of-date software ?
You never know who will need it, but I would remove the mysql port and leave the mysql3 port. Blair
