I found MySQL Workbench for Linux has an bug. The bug seems to come from scintilla. I typed some CJK words in SQL Editor of MySQL Workbench. It would show the garbled codes and incorrect words. The bug does not appears on Fedora, but also on any other Linux distros, including Debian and Ubuntu. However, Windows version has not this problem. Should we report this bug to MySQL Workbench's and scintilla's developers?
I do not think MySQL Connector C++ is a problem. Before we need to upgrade mysql-workbench, the packager can upgrade mysql-connector-c++. It needs more time to do for it than other packages. But the problem should not stop our steps.
About MySQL Cluster, I found another distributions like openSUSE and Ubuntu would bundle NDB engine and normal mysql-server. If we install mysql-cluster-server, then the system will replace mysql-server. I do not think this is a good method. Mandriva provides an independent packages for mysql-cluster. It just contains NDB engine and some init script. As I see, MySQL Cluster is an independent component. It should separate from mysql-server.
Should I invite mysql's packager tgl to get into this topic?
