Thanks for the URL, Donovan. Ok this really is not good, is it still the licensing snafu/issue with MySQL 4.x that Redhat doesn't like? Something about a change regarding to linking to 4.x libs and the LGPL I remember reading...
Increasing we're having to hybrid all our servers (run the mysql client RPMS for 3.x, but server binaries for 4.0 over in /usr/local/) for more and more projects that need the 4.0 features. I've also read that with 4.1 server binaries, the 3.x client apps will no longer work?
sigh. They're killin us out here in the trenches...

The mysql in 4.0beta is indeed 3.23.58, but there is now a mysql-4.1.9 in rawhide, so it seems that they have worked out the licensing issues.
It is possible that 4.1.x can be released in RHEL 4 (and so in CentOS-4 as well). If it is not, I'll build a mysql-4 and make it an extras or contrib build for CentOS-4 final ... because I want to use the new administrator and it is only for mysql-4.

Wondering if this has something to do with AB coming after people for licensing revenue, in violation of the mysql EULA.
After seeing a buddy of mine's firm get nailed for 1.5 million dollars I learned at his firms expense.
