my_print_defaults Packed on client RPM instead of Server

[Jervin R]

On 5.5.19, my_print_defaults was shipped with server RPM:

[revin@forge Downloads]$ rpm -qlp Percona-Server-server-55-5.5.19-rel24.0.204.rhel6.x86_64.rpm|grep my_print_defaults
warning: Percona-Server-server-55-5.5.19-rel24.0.204.rhel6.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID cd2efd2a: NOKEY
/usr/bin/my_print_defaults
/usr/share/man/man1/my_print_defaults.1.gz

[revin@forge Downloads]$ rpm -qlp Percona-Server-client-55-5.5.19-rel24.0.204.rhel6.x86_64.rpm|grep my_print_defaults
warning: Percona-Server-client-55-5.5.19-rel24.0.204.rhel6.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID cd2efd2a: NOKEY

On 5.5.28 it shipped with client RPM:

[revin@forge Downloads]$ rpm -qlp Percona-Server-client-55-5.5.28-rel29.2.360.rhel6.x86_64.rpm|grep my_print_defaults
warning: Percona-Server-client-55-5.5.28-rel29.2.360.rhel6.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID cd2efd2a: NOKEY
/usr/bin/my_print_defaults
/usr/share/man/man1/my_print_defaults.1.gz

[revin@forge Downloads]$ rpm -qlp Percona-Server-server-55-5.5.28-rel29.2.360.rhel6.x86_64.rpm|grep my_print_defaults
warning: Percona-Server-server-55-5.5.28-rel29.2.360.rhel6.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID cd2efd2a: NOKEY

On Oracle MySQL, this is on the server package:

[revin@forge Downloads]$ rpm -qlp MySQL-server-5.5.28-1.el6.x86_64.rpm|grep my_print_defaults
/usr/bin/my_print_defaults
/usr/share/man/man1/my_print_defaults.1.gz

Wherever it should be, it should be consistent - I think more appropriate to be on server since the init scripts depends on it.

Indeed:

[openxs@chief ~]$ rpm -qlp Percona-Server-client-55-5.5.28-rel29.2.360.rhel6.x86_64.rpm | grep print_defaults
warning: Percona-Server-client-55-5.5.28-rel29.2.360.rhel6.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID cd2efd2a: NOKEY
/usr/bin/my_print_defaults
/usr/share/man/man1/my_print_defaults.1.gz
[openxs@chief ~]$ rpm -qlp Percona-Server-server-55-5.5.28-rel29.2.360.rhel6.x86_64.rpm | grep print_defaults

Is this relevant for 5.1?

[Raghavendra D Prabhu (raghavendra-prabhu)]

It is fine on 5.1

rpm -qf =my_print_defaults
Percona-Server-server-51-5.1.66-rel14.1.496.rhel6.x86_64

PS 5.6.10 is NOT affected:

[openxs@chief tmp]$ rpm -qlp Percona-Server-server-56-5.6.10-alpha60.2.324.rhel6.x86_64.rpm | grep print_defaults
warning: Percona-Server-server-56-5.6.10-alpha60.2.324.rhel6.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID cd2efd2a: NOKEY
/usr/bin/my_print_defaults
/usr/share/man/man1/my_print_defaults.1.gz

my_print_default was moved to the client package for compatibility with the distro (CentOS, etc) packages, for which it's also in the client packages.

As correctly said, some server scripts depend on it, so the client package was added to the dependencies of the server, making it work correctly.

If any, for consistency the same change should be applied to 5.6, moving my_print_defaults to the client package.
