I just installed devel/bugzilla50 (via ports). It installed just fine from the FreeBSD package/ports point of view, but when I then run its "checksetup.pl" script (which is apparently needed to do Bugzilla's initial configuration), it fails when trying to create the table "groups":
I started manually modifying the code just to try to get it to work, e.g. changing "CREATE TABLE groups" to "CREATE TABLE `groups`", but there are a bunch of references to this table, and moreover there are some things that may be, but to me are not clearly, references to it (as I don't know Perl). And for all I know, there are other MySQL 8 incompatibilities (unrelated to "group") still in there anyway. So, I figured it wouldn't be terribly wise for me to continue.
Could this port please be updated? Is there any more information that I might be able to provide, or any other forums where I should point this issue out, in order to facilitate this? Thanks.
I poked around a little and discovered that this is because "groups" is now a reserved word in MySQL 8. Poking around further, I found that (at least apparently) this problem was fixed upstream in version 5.0.6, which was released four years ago. FreeBSD's latest version is 5.0.4.Adding new table groups...
