Details

The release notes say:
Database: You no longer have to set max_packet_size in MySQL to add large attachments. However, you may need to set it manually if you restore a mysqldump into your database.

However, it doesn't explain how to set it.

Summary: Release notes for 3.2 don't explain what is needed to update for max_packet_size → Documentation doesn't explain that max_packet_size must be set to restore a mysqldump
http://bugzilla.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installing/backups.html now talks about backups. However, it doesn't talk about restoring them at all. We should fix that! :-)
