Bug 152249

Summary: build error in databases/mysql55-server 5.5.7 on FreeBSD 6.x
Product: Ports & Packages Reporter: klaus

Description klaus 2010-11-14 20:00:18 UTC 
I tried upgrading the mysql-server port to the latest version on my
root servers.

While doing a "portupgrade -R mysql-server" from 5.5.6 to 5.5.7
during the compile process "Making all in auth" there is an error
"unrecognized option "-Wno-pointer-sign"

all versions prior to 5.5.6 built without problems on this machines.

Fix: 

This problem only occurs on FreeBSD 6.2 and 6.4.

To fix (or workaround):

- edit work/mysql-[version]/plugin/auth/Makefile
- remove "-Wno-pointer-sign" from the AM_CPPFLAGS line
- finish compiling and install

***

Problem may come from an slightly outdated gcc version in 6.x ...

Maybe its time to upgrade more than just this port and its dependencies ... ;-)
How-To-Repeat: 
cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql55-server; make
