Ideally, yes. Filed https://github.com/codership/galera/issues/599 so we don't forget this. > PS: Otto, what do you think about dropping the epoch from > src:mariadb-10.6 onwards and applying it only to the binary packages > that don't change their names? If you want to do this, get in touch once > you start preparing 10.6 Seems a bit messy to have the epoch in some packages but not all. Also if we want to start doing this, it would need to start with MariaDB 10.7 and be done both upstream and in Debian so that they stay in sync and we don''t end up with users "upgrading" from MariaDB 10.6 from Debian.org repos to MariaDB 10.5 in MariaDB.org repos.
