MySQL has been updated with 8.0.30

MySQL will be launched on the weekend, but there are major updates to MySQL that cannot be installed. It is estimated that the system will be installed
 
If you can do the work, or know of anyone who wants to do a lot of hard work for free, please make it happen.

We'd all love for there to be more developers, but posting on forums doesn't seem to make it happen.

Have a look at how much work is involved in upgrading MySQL - even a minor version - and you'd appreciate what a huge thankless task it is. I tried - once.

If you look at the bug list for 8.0.30 it seems to be a lot about the OpenSSL and cURL libraries and I believe those might be OK in FreeBSD already but don't listen to anything that people on the internet tell you!
 
Is there only one MySQL port maintainer? FreeBSD should call on some people who love to join, which will be conducive to the long-term development of FreeBSD.
Your patch for 8.0.30 is welcome. If it works, I will gladly commit it ;-)
