Subject: [RHBA-2000:133-04] Updated mysql packages available for
Red Hat Linux 7
Red Hat, Inc. Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis: Updated mysql packages available for Red Hat Linux 7
Advisory ID: RHBA-2000:133-04
Issue date: 2000-12-19
Updated on: 2000-12-20
Product: Red Hat Linux
Keywords: mysql aliasing join empty table
Cross references:
1. Topic:
The MySQL packages shipped in Red Hat Linux 7 and as updates had
bugs which caused the DB engine to return bad results or crash.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Linux 7.0 – alpha, i386
3. Problem description:
The MySQL packages shipped with Red Hat Linux 7 contained buggy
assembler code. When compiled with optimization enabled, this code
caused the database server to return bad results. Also, a case
where you can crash the database by a specific, valid query has
been fixed.
Note that MySQL has updated its client library since the initial
version. To deal with compiled applications linked with this
library, a new package, mysqlclient9, has been created.
4. Solution:
For all RPMs downloaded for your particular architecture,
run:
rpm -Uvh mysql*
Because of dependencies the packages must be installed as a
group.
After downloading all RPMs needed for your particular
architecture, run:
rpm -Uvh mysql*
5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla

21897 – LEFT JOIN RESTARTS MYSQL
