Description:
Even after fixing paths in Bug #48694: mysql-install-db.pl does not correctly handle --srcdir on Windows" the script returns:

Installing MySQL system tables...091111 18:04:32 [ERROR] An old style --language  value with language specific part detected: c:\mysql\mysql-5.5.0-beta-win-x86_64\share\  091111 18:04:32 [ERROR] Use --lc-messages-dir without language specific part instead. 

How to repeat:
Fix paths in Bug #48694:
run script and get error

Suggested fix:
Should handle --lc-messages-dir correctly just like the shell version in the same scr tree does.

Jonathan,

thank you for the report.

But where is mysql-install-db.pl in the archive provided? I can only find shell version which works fine.

Also you specified Windows version, but sent link to Linux binaries.

mysql-install-db is not supported on Windows.
