Bug #17168602 MYSQL_PLUGIN REMOVES NON-DIRECTORY TYPE FILES
SPECIFIED WITH THE BASEDIR OPTION Description: The mysql_plugin client attempts to remove any filename specified to the --basedir option. The problem is that if the filename does not end with a slash, it will attempt to unlink it, which succeeds for files, but not for directories. Analysis: When we are starting mysql_plugin with basedir option and if we are giving path of a file as basedir, it deletes that file. It was because it uses a function my_delete which unlinks the file path given. Fix: As a fix we replace that line using another function my_free, which will only free the pointer which is having that file path.
