As of MySQL 5.7, installations created using --initialize no longer have an empty root password; one is generated as part of the process and marked expired. (This message is in part simply advice to read the documentation. However, it's possible other downstream packagers use --initialize-insecure instead, which retains the old empty password approach, so this could be a pkgsrc-specific detail to consider.)

After the tables are set up and the MySQL server is running, a root
|
|
password will be automatically generated; details can be found in the
|
|
server logs. On creation, it is marked as expired, and must be changed
|
|
immediately.
|
|
|
|
There is a script distributed with MySQL that can help you lock down
|
|
an installation. This script has been installed to
|
|
|
|
${PREFIX}/bin/mysql_secure_installation.
|
|
|
|
For both these topics, please see the manual and the MySQL web site for
|
|
further instructions.
