Well, I'm not in charge of deciding which RDBMS to use and the MySQL is
needed for a program which has already been written. So it seems that we
have no choice but to stick with MySQL.
I guess for removing debug symbols I need to add the "--without-debug"
option to the ./configure command. I think using these options would also be
helpful:
- --without-man
- --without-docs
- --without-ipv6
- --disable-largefile
I'm not sure which engine we're going to use, so I'll have to defer this to
another time.
Is there any other work I could do to strip MySQL?
