Description:
Manual page http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql/5.6/en/news-5-6-11.html says:

"Replication: In order to provision or to restore a server using GTIDs, it is possible to set gtid_purged to a given GTID set listing the transactions that were imported. This operation requires that the global gtid_executed and gtid_purged server system variables are empty. (This is done in order to avoid the possibility of overriding server-generated GTIDs.)

The error message GTID_PURGED can only be set when GTID_EXECUTED is empty that was raised when this requirement was not met could be confusing or misleading because it did not specify the scope of the affected variables. To prevent this from happening, error messages that refer to variables relating to GTIDs now specify the scope of any such variables when they do so. (Bug #16084426, Bug #68083)" 

Bug #68083 above is incorrect. It is bug #68038 actually.

How to repeat:
Check bug #68083 and compare to bug #68038 and manual page content.

Suggested fix:
s/68083/68038/
