Re^8: Reading host from defaults file with DBD::mysql

Hmmmmmmmmmmm............

I DID recently switch from community MySQL to MariaDB 10.2 (because it's apparently my only practical option on Gentoo Linux for a Galera cluster). Could MariaDB maybe be doing something iffy...? It wouldn't be the first behavioral change I've seen in MariaDB with no clearly apparent technical reason than to diverge from MySQL.

(That said, I do laud MariaDB for not adopting MySQL 5.6's ill-conceived and badly-implemented history-sanitization "feature".)

FWIW, there is (relatively) new DBD::MariaDB. (I do not know if it provides a configuration parser that would be more flexible to keep the file easier to read by allowing whitespace around "=" sign.)	[reply]
