Are there in fact docs available for this version yet? From MYSQL, I
mean, not Gentoo. Perhaps that's why you haven't been able to find such
a separate package-- it doesn't yet exist, because the 'source' (the
docs themselves) don't. Worth checking, anyway.

Except that most of those flags are no longer valid for the unstable
version...
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pv mysql
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!

The ChangeLog suggests that you may have missed a step or two, or
perhaps should reconsider that "~arch" setting in this case:

*mysql-5.0.16-r2 (23 Nov 2005)
23 Nov 2005; Francesco Riosa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> mysql-4.1.15.ebuild,
mysql-4.1.15-r30.ebuild, -mysql-5.0.16-r1.ebuild, +mysql-5.0.16-r2.ebuild,
mysql-5.0.16-r30.ebuild:
fix Bug #113352 , mysql-5.0.16-r1 does not create
/usr/lib{64}/libmysqlclient.so.15 symlink
==>The linkage has been somewhat improved too. It has been moved in
==>pkg_postinst() function to advise the user to use "revdep-rebuild"
with the
==>right --so-name option.
As a consequence it does not rely on "dosym" but use "ln" program
directly(bug).
==>it work now with FEATURES="prelink notitles sandbox strict userpriv
==>usersandbox keeptemp keepwork" but in the future may be needed to
advise
sandbox that we are messing up with the live file-system
*mysql-5.0.16-r1 (23 Nov 2005)
23 Nov 2005; Francesco Riosa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> files/mysql-slot.rc6,
-mysql-5.0.16.ebuild, +mysql-5.0.16-r1.ebuild:
Version bump, modified rc init script thanks to Jasper Bryant-Greene for
reporting a bug
*mysql-5.0.16-r30 (23 Nov 2005)
*mysql-5.0.16 (23 Nov 2005)
23 Nov 2005; Francesco Riosa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> files/mysql-slot.rc6,
-mysql-4.0.26-r30.ebuild, mysql-4.1.15-r30.ebuild,
-mysql-5.0.13_rc.ebuild, -mysql-5.0.15-r30.ebuild, +mysql-5.0.16.ebuild,
+mysql-5.0.16-r30.ebuild:
Version bump for the 5.0 series.
The ebuild has been rewritten, it's the first step to slot the mysql
database
server. (diff 5.0.16 and 5.0.16-r30 if you don't belive at it)
Also the rc scripts are changed, hopefully bug #109380 is gone (Thanks to
Rodrigo Severo for shaping it).
It's possible from now start more than one server tweaking the
/etc/conf.d/mysql .
The future of slotted MySQL is still uncertain but the rc script will
be kept.
More than uncertain is the slotting of MySQL-4.0 too.
==>reassuming, be careful playing with these ebuilds, never ever
==> "~ARCH" keywords has been so unstable.
-------
Of course, you might want to upgrade to -r2, since clearly some things
didn't work in -r1 (in ebuild terms)
You might also want to stick with stable until things settle down a bit.
Just my 2 Eurocents, as you see, I'm not a MySQL user.
HTH,
Holly
