Since last year, updates to mysql-client-5.5.x kept breaking all =
dependant ports, including the server itself. Apparently, the client =
library could not be located, thus triggering a re-install of the =
client, which failed because the client was already installed. At the =
same time, the old binaries would not be able to find the client =
library, because the so version had been bumped.
I finally found the culprit, after trying to replicate the situation in =
a sandbox (instead of on my main mail server): the ${PREFIX)/lib/mysql =
dir is created with the standard umask, instead of overriding the bits.
In my particular case, the umask is set to 0002 instead of the default =
0022, leaing to a lib dir with rwxrwxr-x. ldconfig(8) refuses to take =
libs from group-writable directories.
It appears that the mkdir for this dir is somewhere inside the install =
target of MySQL, so I'n not certain what the easiest way would be to fix =
the permission bits.
I've updated my portupgrade script to reset the umask to avoid similar =
problems
