I think you are caught in a fork conflict. Both are a fork of mysql, and I vaguely recall there was a disagreement about the direction of mariadb that led to the creation of community-mysql. Or maybe it was with the actual mysql, at Oracle now. It's kind of like the python2 / python3 imbroglio. Eventually they will co-exist, or one will triumph, but until then, users are stuck. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
