OK, that's fine. Perhaps you can tell me where the package is. I would always
use a package over source anyday. I looked in the packages directory for
1.3.1, 1.3.2, and 1.3.3. I also looked in packages/pkgsrc. mySQL isn't there
that I can see. The file I'm using came from /packages/distfiles. The same
goes for PostgreSQL.

Have I missed something?

Cheers,
Ola
