This +assumes you have some knowledge of MySQL, and already have it +installed and configured. If not, please refer to the Gentoo MySQL +guide at the following URL: + +http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/mysql-howto.xml + +Log in to MySQL, and create a new database as well as a user with full +access to this database.

SECURITY WARNING !!!!!!!!!!! + +Wordpress has had a history of serious security flaws. Any application +with less widespread use but the same amount of security issues would +have been removed from the tree. + +After a short period of being in the unstable tree we once again decided +that we hard mask the package. + +THIS MEANS THAT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE WHATSOEVER THAT THE PACKAGE WILL +GET UPGRADED WITHIN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME EVEN IN THE CASE OF +SEVERE SECURITY ISSUES. + +We consider installing this package a severe risk to your system and +you should keep a close eye on the common security trackers so +that you are able to fix problems with your installation yourself if +required. |
