I'll assume that you are using the mysql-standard x86_64 binary distro? Have you tinkered with compiling mysql from source? Has anyone gotten mysql compile from source on suse-amd64?
I usually use the binary distro. I typically use the tar.gz file simply because its easier for my setup. I've compiled it without a problem too. Heres the configure line I used for 4.1.8: CFLAGS="-O3" CXX=gcc CXXFLAGS="-O3 -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti" ./configure --prefix=/mysql/mysql-4.1.8 --with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static --enable-thread-safe-client --with-extra-charsets=complex --enable-local-infile Mark
Has anyone used UDF's on the mysql-max distro? Any success stories on compiling them on the suse-amd64?
A more generic question, does suse use LinuxThreads or NPTL?
