Comment 3 for bug 1119317

Stephane,
The purpose of the sb shortcut is to add an advanced layer of command shortening, on top of something like

make_replication_sandbox 5.5.29

This only works if you are using $SANDBOX_BINARY. If not, the shortcuts may backfire.

To take advantage of this feature, the recommended procedure is:

mkdir -p $HOME/opt/mysql
# or set SANDBOX_BINARY to the place where you have expanded the tarballs

make_sandbox --export_binaries /home/stephane/mysql-5.5.29-linux2.6-i686.tar.gz

# when asked for confirmation, say 'n'

Then, you can run

sb r5.5.29
