--- Comment #25 from Kubilay Kocak <koobs@FreeBSD.org> ---
Ladies/Gentleman, the issue tracker is for isolating/tracking issues and ch=
ange
requests. The mailing lists are for discussion. Please respect that
distinction, as anything to the contrary wastes time we all have precious
little of.

It's safe to say:

That /var/db/${PORTNAME} will remain the default given the number of ports =
that
use it and it ought be possible to separate these two concerns. Let's beat =
the
non-system-databases-need-a-new-home horse on the mailing lists.

That whatever change is made will need to made consistently across
mysql/maria/percona/foo ports.

Can someone please comment on (and only on) exactly what precludes/prevents=
 the
correct functioning of the datadir argument in my.cnf as it stands today. T=
his
will save me (or others) the time of having to hunt it down.

I'd prefer any of the maintainers of the respective ports (all are now CC'd=
) to
provide authoritative information, but will settle for anyone who actually
knows the root cause.
