Comment (by ryandesign):

 It's not a good idea to change tickets to be about a completely different
 issue.

 You're right, I don't think any of the mysql ports install the preference
 pane. What would you use the preference pane for if we did install it?
 Looking at [https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/macos-installation-
 prefpane.html screenshots of the preference pane], it looks like it allows
 you to start and stop MySQL, initialize a database, set configuration
 parameters, and uninstall MySQL. In MacPorts, all of those tasks would be
 [wiki:howto/MySQL accomplished on the command line]. (The one task not
 described there—uninstalling MySQL—would be accomplished with `sudo port
 uninstall`.)
