The Tlog - a technology blog

On a whim, I upgraded MySQL on my server to 5.0.18. No problems so far, unlike 4.1.x, which had a few troubles with OpenBSD. It still has the bug where (when compiling in OpenBSD) the client libraries link to ../libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so.15.0 instead of simply -lmysqlclient, but I simply had to repeat the compilations in the client/ subdirectory, replacing the former with the latter.

As far as I can see, there are no problems with current versions of WordPress, MediaWiki and phpBB, all of which I use here.
