Hi folks, I'd like to share an idea related to MySQL->MariaDB move, that may be a bit controversial. Speaking about default case in Fedora, MySQL has used only one file at /etc/my.cnf to configure server, libraries, command-line utilities, etc. MariaDB uses by default /etc/my.cnf and /etc/my.cnf.d/{client,server,..}.cnf files, while all the /etc/my.cnf.d directory is included using !includedir statement in /etc/my.cnf. The problem is, that after replacing MySQL with MariaDB existed my.cnf won't get updated (uses "%config(noreplace)") and then users will be confused by having /etc/my.cnf.d/* files, which won't be used.
Just add README file to /etc/my.cnf.d/ mentioning that /etc/my.cnf must contain that includedir line or those file won't be used
