py27-mysql: update deps to a more recent version of mysql5

Reported by: andrew.uzilov@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.2.0
Keywords: Cc: rwilcox (Ryan Wilcox), ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Port: py27-mysql

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

py27-mysql @1.2.3_1 fails to build on OS X 10.8.4, port version 2.2.0 (just updated port tree and outdated ports today).

The reason is that the dependency "mysql5" fails to install due to a failed checksum. There is a ticket open for this with the mysql5 maintainer, which says that "mysql5" is deprecated and a more recent version should be used:

#39906

So, please update the deps to use a non-deprecated mysql port.

Thanks! Looking forward to trying the package.

As reporter, you do not need to Cc yourself.

This does not qualify as a high-priority issue.

py27-mysql already offers you the choice of mysql. Just select the +mysql55 variant, for example, if that's what you want.

sudo port install py27-mysql +mysql55

See

port variants py27-mysql

#39068 is already filed requesting a few additional variants be added.

Thanks for the tips! I still believe that the port should, by default, use a dep that is not deprecated, to reduce errors by clueless users like me. Anyway, the mysql5 checksum bug has been fixed, so the original issue isn't an issue anymore in any case.

Until all ports that use mysql have variants for all the available versions, I think it would cause more confusion for the default to be anything other than the old mysql5 port.
