[Bug 1450803] Re: mysqlhotcopy: error in SQL syntax

[Clint Byrum]

Regardless of its status in 5.6/5.7, we shipped 5.5 to users in Ubuntu
14.04, when it was still undeprecated, so I think it is worth fixing in
14.04.

Note that in Ubuntu 15.04 and later, 5.6 is shipped, and mysqlhotcopy is
in fact shown as deprecated:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
branches/ubuntu/vivid/mysql-5.6/vivid/view/head:/scripts/mysqlhotcopy.sh#L161

Now, my personal feeling is that users should stop using it
_immediately_ because it really is a terrible thing to rely on. But, we
take bugs that might affect data integrity, including backups, pretty
seriously.
