Description:
If I install v5.2.5 everything seems to be fine, but after installing 6.0.0 (after
uninstalling 5.2.5) MySql does not appear as driver in the "Add connection" list, or in
the gac when adding references.

How to repeat:
Uninstall 5.2.5
Install 6.0.0

Try to use Visual Studio 2008, or the Express editions.

If I install v 6.0, uninstall it, and then reinstall it again it works :-) So I guess it
has something to do with the v5 connector being installed first.

Hi Morten and thanks for your report.

I have just recently obtained access to VS2008 and such and I need some time to figure
out what to put where. Then I'll take look into this.

Morten, true. But for me, reinstalling c/NET 6.0.1 does not do the trick... Anyways, I
filed new bug report (sorry) so I'll mark this one as duplicate of mine (Bug#44064). I've
been assured this will be dealt with swiftly.
