Description
The descriptions of all the MySQL ports are identical:
$ port info --name --long_description mysql4 mysql5{,1,5,6} mariadb percona long_description: MySQL is an open-source, multi-threaded SQL database with a command syntax very similar to mSQL. name: mysql4 -- long_description: MySQL is an open-source, multi-threaded SQL database with a command syntax very similar to mSQL. name: mysql5 -- long_description: MySQL is an open-source, multi-threaded SQL database with a command syntax very similar to mSQL. name: mysql51 -- long_description: MySQL is an open-source, multi-threaded SQL database with a command syntax very similar to mSQL. name: mysql55 -- long_description: MySQL is an open-source, multi-threaded SQL database with a command syntax very similar to mSQL. name: mysql56 -- long_description: MySQL is an open-source, multi-threaded SQL database with a command syntax very similar to mSQL. name: mariadb -- long_description: MySQL is an open-source, multi-threaded SQL database with a command syntax very similar to mSQL. name: percona
That's not awful, except that I expected the description of mariadb to say "MariaDB is..." and for percona to say "Percona is...", and perhaps have a mention of being forks of MySQL.
In all these ports, the mention of mSQL is perhaps archaic. By now, nobody's confused about what MySQL is.
