Zmanda recovery manager for MySQL (MySQL ZRM) is a backup and
recovery manager for MySQL database server. It also provides backup
scheduling and reporting features.
It supports backup of MySQL databases/tables using various methods
(both running on same machine as the MySQL server as well as on a
remote machine).
From maintainer Giovanni Bechis, thanks!
This is a newer interface to access PostgreSQL database from Ruby.
It is designed to offer every feature available in libpq to Ruby, with a
better API. This module is simpler, cleaner, and more portable than
ruby-postgres.
Submitted and maintained by Jeremy Evans.
works around a dos vulnerability in rexml

Sharedance is a high-performance server that centralize ephemeral
KEY/DATA Pairs on remote hosts, without the overhead and the complexity
of an SQL database.
It was mainly designed to share caches and sessions between a pool of
web servers. Access to a sharedance server is trivial through a simple
PHP API and it is compatible with the expectations of PHP 4 and PHP 5
session handlers.
from William Yodlowsky with some tweaks by me
Maatkit makes MySQL easier and safer to manage. It provides simple,
predictable ways to do things you cannot otherwise do.

this change requires bumping other ports which use it. pointed
out by naddy, thanks!
- add a comment in Makefile to warn others not to do the same.
ok naddy@
which sqlbrowser shouldn't use
for now it's the best if it uses its own sqlite
spotted by naddy@ in his bulk build, a while ago
"go ahead and fix it" bernd@, ok kurt@
- merge espie's patches
- fix apps such as p5-DBD-SQLite, by adding weak pthread functions.
also include some bug fixes from kurt@. the work has been done by
kurt@, and espie@. thanks!

Little Brother Database is a simple email address database,
originally designed for Mutt, but working with other software.
It can query multiple backends, including local files of many
formats, and some network sources, including finger and
YP/NIS. LDAP support is available in the lbdb-ldap package.

No longer use modbuild.
Tweak regress_depends (from simon) and run_depends
Patch Makefile.PL to not run to CPAN for RUN_DEPENDS.
ok and help from simon@
pg_top is 'top' for PostgreSQL. It is derived from Unix Top. Similar
to top, pg_top allows you to monitor PostgreSQL processes. It also
allows you to:
* View currently running SQL statement of a process.
* View query plan of a currently running SELECT statement.
* View locks held by a process.
* View user table statistics.
* View user index statistics

The DBD::Chart provides a DBI abstraction for rendering pie charts, bar
charts, box&whisker charts (aka boxcharts), histograms, Gantt charts,
and line, point, and area graphs.

it makes more sense to add devhelp as run_depends for gnome-session and
leave it to the user to install it manually for other packages

it from the default. Remove the section, people running systems large
enough to need a higher value should already know about the sysctl.

pyPgSQL is a package of two modules that provide a Python DB-API 2.0
compliant interface to PostgreSQL databases. The first module, libpq,
exports the PostgreSQL C API to Python. This module is written in C and
can be compiled into Python or can be dynamically loaded on demand. The
second module, PgSQL, provides the DB-API 2.0 compliant interface and
support for various PostgreSQL data types, such as INT8, NUMERIC, MONEY,
BOOL, ARRAYS, etc. This module is written in Python.

PyGreSQL is a BSD licensed open-source Python module that interfaces
to a PostgreSQL database. It embeds the PostgreSQL query library to
allow easy use of the powerful PostgreSQL features from a Python
script.

mapper. Its primary goal is to provide an object-oriented layer with
what we consider to be the key aspects of OO, i.e. polymorphism and
message dispatch, without hindering the power of an RDBMS. It is
designed to "feel pythonic", without encouraging the typical ORM
behavior such as potato programming.
Axiom provides a full interface to the database, which strongly
suggests that you do not write any SQL of your own. Metaprogramming is
difficult and dangerous (as many, many SQL injection attacks amply
demonstrate). Writing your own SQL is still possible, however, and
Axiom does have several methods which return fragments of generated
schema if you wish to use them in your own queries.

This caused lots of problems with the calendar and other stuff because the
evolution-data-server didn't run correctly.
Well, evolution-data-server is currently broken because of the libsoup
major update. It needs an update to a more recent version.
pgFouine is a PostgreSQL log analyzer used to generate detailed reports
from a PostgreSQL log file. pgFouine can help you to determine which
queries you should optimize to speed up your PostgreSQL based
application.

pgloader imports data from a flat file and insert it into a database
table. It uses a flat file per database table, and you can configure as
many Sections as you want, each one associating a table name and a data
file.

you apply this and restore afterwards!
Additionally, implicit typecasts are history and not supported anymore.
Versions prior to 8.3 had the feature (some say bug) that functions,
expecting an argument to be of a certain type, have casted a variable of
any other type to the expected type, if possible.
This has changed now. Tests surfaced rare occurrences of regressions,
which were then fixed in about ten minutes - and that code was not even
in the ports tree; no issues found there.
A few more things have changed, namely tsearch2 went from contrib to the
core and native uuid type support was added; for details read the
release announcement at
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/release-8-3.html.

After discussions with a few people and testing of how upgrades will
be handled, mark this FLAVOR as broken so existing -bdb users don't
break their installation with pkg_add -u. Those wishing to upgrade
must dump their database, remove the openldap-*-bdb package, then
they are free to install the new unFLAVORed version and restore
the database.
This can be revisited after release, hopefully OpenLDAP 2.4 (which
requires newer DB) will be stable by then.
