maybe you should make clearer what you want if you force people to search
in their archives because add the SPEC was a niceness from me to explain
the rest of my post - my "mariadb.spec" is much smaller as many posts

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

and why in the world is this not solved more pragmatically?

my conslusion is
* MariaDB will replace mysql as default
* any package will be linked against mariadb
* Oracle MySQL should only provide the server and not the client-tools

so why is MariaDB not obsoleting mysql without all
this versioning tricks and "mysql-oracle" installs
the server under "/usr/local/mysql-oracle/" and
provides a "mysql-oracle.service"?

the complete packaging would be so much easier like
with my own SPEC-file which works fine for F18, yes
i know there are a lot of things we do not need removed
but take it as sample how a migration could work because
it also replaces mysql-5.5.30 while it's own version
is 5.5.29
