Description:
Release tree:

$ ls BUILD/
compile-amd64-debug-max
compile-amd64-max
compile-amd64-max-sci

bk tree:
compile-amd64-debug-max
compile-amd64-debug-max-no-ndb
compile-amd64-gcov

compile-amd64-debug-max-no-ndb is missing in all released versions.

How to repeat:
Look into the BUILD directory

Suggested fix:
Add it from bk tree

The EXTRA_DIST list in BUILD/Makefile.am is missing several of the later added BUILD/compile-... files. When regenerating the file list from sorted "ls" output the diff is as follows:

These scripts are unsupported,
especially they are not used in release builds.

So unless some developer(s) use(s) them and then maintain(s) them,
all MySQL AB can do is provide them "as is".

Why is it considered "unacceptable" to maintain a scriptlet consisting of "configure ; make" with the options preferred by the individual user ?
[4 Feb 2008 19:49] Jonas Oreland
my vote is "not a bug"
[15 Apr 2008 14:17] Joerg Bruehe
I will check that all files "BUILD/compile-*" that exist
also make it into a source tarball, from 5.0 up.

This does *not* imply any responsibility for their contents,
or include any maintenance responsibilities.

Docs team:
*If* you have a section in the manual about this,
or if you document this as a bug fix when it eventually gets pushed,
please describe these files as being provided on an "as-is" base.
There is nobody who will align these files with changing configurations,
added/modified/removed features, etc,
(unless a developer uses them for his/her own purposes and fixes problems s/he notes).

  Fix for   Bug #34291  compile-amd64-debug-max-no-ndb missing
      
  Include several "BUILD/compile-*" files in a source tarball ("make dist" target)
  which might be useful to community users who want to build from source.
  
  When merging this up, the "BUILD/compile-*" file list needs to be checked.

I checked the patch locally ("make dist"), got the desired effect.

Noted in 5.0.62, 5.1.25, 6.0.6 changelogs.

Several additional configuration scripts in the BUILD directory now
are included in source distributions. These may be useful for users
who wish to build MySQL from source.
