MySQL Workbench is a cross-platform, visual database design
tool developed by MySQL. It is the highly anticipated successor
application of the DBDesigner4 project. MySQL Workbench is available
as a native GUI tool on Windows, Linux, and OS X in different
editions.
MySQL Workbench provides DBAs and developers an integrated tools
environment for:
* Database Design & Modeling
* SQL Development (replacing MySQL Query Browser)
* Database Administration (replacing MySQL Administrator)
You need to allow MySQL to accept incoming connections from outside:
Remove or comment this line: SKIP="--skip-networking" and then do:
/etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld restart
Note: MySQL Workbench will be built against Python 2.7 even when
Python 3.x is installed on your system
NOTE: You may need to run mysql_upgrade if mysql-workbench could not
fetch your metadata. You may need to add this into /etc/ld.so.conf:
/usr/lib{64}/mysql-workbench
Warning: This SlackBuild requires network access when it runs, meaning
it downloads files from the Internet with root access. You should
decide for yourself whether or not you think this is a good idea.
