From a stock/standard/typical/desktop install of Linux, it seems these are required in order to build MySQL/MariaDb/Percona forks:

MySQL Workbench: Remote Administration on Windows – Support for Windows “Remote” Management within the New Server Instance Wizard and Manage Server Instance Form. This works for servers on the same domain (or trusted) – ie typical Windows LAN environments. We expect Windows users to prefer this “native” way to do remote admin on Windows. SSH remote admin has been available for some time on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux.
MySQL Workbench: Utilities Plugin – Starts a shell that contains a set of python scripts that perform basic tasks such as copying, exporting, and importing databases, finding database objects or processes, cloning servers and cloning users.

The advantage being addition/removal of packages either using the GUI package manager or rpm(8), yum(8). Fair enough. But unfortunately the MySQL package (mysql-server) that comes bundled with RHEL 5.5 or CentOS 5.5 is fairly old (5.0.77). What if you want to install the latest stable version of MySQL yet have the advantage of removing/re-installing the software using rpm(8)?

[Read more]The Apache Software Foundation’s latest statement on the Java Community Process highlights continued dissatisfaction and dissent from Oracle’s stewardship and involvement in open source software.
This comes after some ups and downs for Oracle and its oversight of Java and other open source software that was previously under the auspices of Sun Microsystems. Oracle started off on a rough path when it sued Google over its implementation of Java in Android without preemptively or clearly stating that it was not attacking open source. At about the same time, it let OpenSolaris die a slow, somewhat confusing death. …
