Description:
For some reason mysqlslap is not included in the distribution, although it's declared to be included: (mysqlslap is available as of MySQL 5.1.4.)

Thank you for the report.

Verified as described.

Actually only *glibc23* RPMs contain mysqlslap

Affects the (Linux-)distribution-specific RPMs only.

Sorry this got out of sight ...

The bug fix is in a RPM "spec" file which this is not in the general source tree,
so pushing that fix was not caught by our triggers.

The fix will take effect for the next 5.1 build (5.1.23-rc).

Noted in 5.1.23 changelog.

mysqlslap was missing from the MySQL 5.1.22 Linux RPM packages.
