PBXT   NO 


I think that the .zip package had PBXT enabled as default.  Can I enable it somehow with this build? PBXT is actually *THE REASON* why MariaDB is interesting for me.

Ok, valid bug. Thanks for reporting.

There will *still* be this message if you're trying to install 5.2.5 msi
with existing 5.2.(<5) NSIS .   For me personally  ,main reason NOT  to
offer 5.2.4=>5.2.5 autoupgrade is the fact that MariaDBs NSIS was not
designed to run in silent mode, its popups "Directory not deleted" during
upgrade  would only alienate users .

The upgrade is not always automatic,  sometimes it is semiautomatic
(supported by the  UI tool launched at the end of installation).  Did you
look in the WL on how upgrades are handled? Here is link just in case
http://askmonty.org/worklog/Server-Sprint/?tid=55 .  Feedback on it  is
welcome.


I have fixed 5.2.5 over 5.1 NSIS installation ,the update is on usual place.
Thanks for your efforts,
Vladislav
