Installing MySQL 5.1.45 on OpenSolaris

Download the source

Download the file mysql-5.1.45.tar.gz from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/

Save this in /src

You may also want to verify the file signature or checksums and read the README or INSTALL files.

Extract, configure and make (on x86)

Via http://forge.mysql.com/w/images/0/01/MySQLUOSDevv1.pdf

We’re missing g++, also note that this pkg will replace our linked /usr/bin/gcc
