I had to add mysql5 support to rb-mysql to even test a patch to the rb-dbd-mysql port to fix a download path problem because I have MySQL 5 installed.

Let's merge them together, rb-mysql5 could be resurrected later.

Ok, I'll do it. But the combined one will support mysql5 by default and mysql4 with a variant, so a future rb-mysql5 shouldn't be needed. Of course, the only way to specify that you use mysql4 would be 'port install rb-mysql +mysql4', because a port can't specify a dependent's variants, but we have to deal with that with all our other ports too. By the way, should rb-dbd-mysql be upgraded from 0.0.23 to 0.1.1, the latest? Or is there some reason it needs to stay at the older rev? Thanks. Mark
