Branch: pkgsrc-2007Q2, Version: 5.0.45, Package name: mysql-client-5.0.45, Maintainer: xtraeme

MySQL is a SQL (Structured Query Language) database server. SQL is the
most popular database language in the world. MySQL is a client-server
implementation that consists of a server daemon `mysqld' and many
different client programs/libraries.

The main goals of MySQL are speed and robustness.

The base upon which MySQL is built is a set of routines that have been
used in a highly demanding production environment for many years. While
MySQL is still in development it already offers a rich and highly useful
function set.

The official way to pronounce 'MySQL' is 'My Ess Que Ell' (Not MY-SEQUEL).

This package contains the MySQL client programs and libraries.

   Log message:
   Update "mysql5-client" and "mysql5-server" packages to \ 
version 5.0.45.
   Change since version 5.0.41:
   - Functionality added or changed:
     - A new status variable, Com_call_procedure, indicates the number of calls
       to stored procedures. (Bug#27994)
     - NDB Cluster: The server source tree now includes scripts to simplify
       building MySQL with SCI support. For more information about SCI
       interconnects and these build scripts, see Section 15.9.1,
       Configuring MySQL Cluster to use SCI Sockets. (Bug#25470)
     - Prior to this release, when DATE values were compared with DATETIME values
       the time portion of the DATETIME value was ignored. Now a DATE value is
       coerced to the DATETIME type by adding the time portion as 00:00:00. To
       mimic the old behavior use the CAST() function in the following way:
       SELECT date_field = CAST(NOW() as DATE);. (Bug#28929)
   - A large number of bugs including these security problems have been fixed:
     - A malformed password packet in the
       connection protocol could cause the server to crash. Thanks for Dormando
       for reporting this bug and providing details and a proof of concept.
       (Bug#28984)
     - CREATE TABLE LIKE did not require any privileges on the source table. Now
       it requires the SELECT privilege. (Bug#25578)
     - In addition, CREATE TABLE LIKE was not isolated from alteration by other
       connections, which resulted in various errors and incorrect binary log
       order when trying to execute concurrently a CREATE TABLE LIKE statement
       and either DDL statements on the source table or DML or DDL statements on
       the target table. (Bug#23667)
