If you have done:

	sudo port install mysql5-devel +server

Then, to switch from mysql5 to mysql5-devel, do this:

	sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/ 
org.macports.mysql5.plist
	sudo port deactivate mysql5
	sudo port activate mysql5-devel
	sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.mysql5- 
devel.plist
