I can notice the same message while portupgrading.

I've tried contacting the maintainer by email on 2009-02-11 about the same problem with 5.1.30 but I've got no answer.

Wrong PLIST?

>From what I can understand the "--with-example-storage-engine" option should be used to have those files built, but adding the option to CONFIGURE_ARGS in Makefile, I get:
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --with-example-storage-engine 
and I don't know if it's my fault or a sw bug.


EDIT:
after various tests, I've finally found the solution to have the missing file built, adding --with-plugins=example to CONFIGURE_ARGS. Patch attached.


>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/databases/mysql51-server && make package clean
or
portupgrade -p databases/mysql51-server
or
pkg_create -xb mysql-server-5.1

>Fix:
Correct the pkg-plist or add the configure option as in the attached patch.
