Re: libexec/mysqld vs bin/mysqld

Hi,
it seems to me the mysqld binary, compiled from sources, is placed in
libexec/ directory, but you binary distributions contain it in bin/
directory. I know that at least once with 4.0.9 linux binary dist I've hit
a case, when mysqld was expected in libexec but wasn't (I mean the rc
script supplied with distribution expected the binary in libexec, or it
got compiled into the binaries as default value ... I guess).
How-To-Repeat:
I don't have time right now to reproduce this, I think pointing this out
should be enough to get rid of libexec directory at least.

We shall check it out.

I guess that you are referring to Linux distros.

This usually happens, if there is still another binary distribution
installed (e.g. the original Red Hat RPMs and our binary tarball
distribution). When installing the binary tarballs in /usr/local , you
should deinstall the RPMs first.

Hmm, but we use debian linux and I always use linux.tar.gz binary
distributrion from mysql or compile mysql mysql. I install into
/usr/local/mysql-* and symlink mysql to mysql-* as I wish.
And I do cd /usr/local/mysql-* before starting the init.d/mysql script.
