The usual way for a package using a language binding is to depend on that bindig (dev-perl/DBD-mysql-VVV). All my worries were for the case when the latest stable dev-perl/DBD-mysql is compiled against the latest SLOTed mysql-5.1.x and is being used to access data on an old (SLOTed or not; localhost or some remote host) server. But I guess then the problem will be entirely in dev-perl/DBD-mysql being unable to connect to older servers :-) At this moment I should say "Sorry for the wasted bandwidth/time" :-| [...] > Better ?
