MacPorts is nice, but I am wanting to start tinkering with the source code.
I was able to get it to build with the following steps on Lion:
$ mkdir mysql-repo
$ cd mysql-repo/
$ bzr init-repo .
$ bzr branch lp:mysql-server/5.5 5.5
$ cd 5.5
$ ./BUILD/compile-pentium64-debug-max --prefix=/usr/

Hello,
I am trying to setup a development machine to start delving into some of the
internal code of the MySQL DB. I'm off to a great start, since I can't even get
it to build properly. I'm sure I'm missing an important step, but am following
the instructions from
