Thanks" my post contained the SPEC-file which is plaintext and the sources and patches are the same as in the MariaDB src.rpm from koji, and as i said there are a lot of changes besides the Obsoltes/Provides which are far away from fedora guidelines but however http://access.thelounge.net/harry/mariadb-5.5.29-18.fc18.20130309.rh.src.rpm the point is: INSTALL "mysql-oracle" under /usr/local and replace/obsolete mysql and all subpackages completly with it and the whole discussion would be done long ago and all the maintaining troubles over the release avoided -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Re: MariaDB replacing MySQL Datum: Sat, 09 Mar 2013 17:14:57 +0100 Von: Reindl Harald <h.reindl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Organisation: the lounge interactive design An: Development discussions related to Fedora <devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Am 08.03.2013 08:09, schrieb Rahul Sundaram: > On 03/06/2013 08:44 AM, Miloslav Trmač wrote: >> File conflicts within the server packages might still be a concern, I don't know.
