  2. Works great, Thank you. If you’re taking feature requests, a nice one would be sql formatting (beautify) when editing DDL.

  3. It is nice to have the newest WB avaialable in various flavours. My favorite is the UUbuntu/Linux one. The problem with the .deb package is that it assumes a MySQL server as installed by the Ubuntu distro packages, which is still 5.1. I have installed the 5.5 .deb package but this does not register itself correctly so that WB does not find the binaries. So if you provide correct .deb packages for WB then please also provide correct ones for the server and client.

    I am a MySQL trainer with the Oracle University and I have projects using MySQL on Ubuntu/Debian and it is annoying to always have to fix the incomplete setup.

    Please think about it.

    Best regards

  4. This would be nice if the SQL Editor had some kind of SQL formating feature.

  5. Hi Ulrich, could you file a bug report, including the error message you get and the names of MySQL packages you installed (including source)?
