There are several significant changes. Here's the laundry list: 1. Databases are located in /var/lib/mysql, instead of /var/mysql 2. The /etc/init.d/mysql is massively simplified 3. The /etc/mysql/my.cnf file is rewritten 4. Several options were added to ./configure 5. The package is built using reccomended compiler flags for stability 6. Ensures a proper mysql/group account setup on your system. 7. Patches to mould the distribution into a more Gentooier package 8. Some general housekeeping in syntax, and in /usr/share/mysql especially 9. An ebuild config function, for no-nonsense instant setup and go capability Cheers -- Donny
