For now, databases/mariadb-server use MYSQL_VER=52, which is not used by mysql. Don't know what should be the better way: a kind of 'meta' port, more magic in bsd.databases.mk, or another way to (auto-)select a compatible port in respect to user's choice ? For mariadb 5.3, I think it could replace actual databases/mariadb-server (because of 5.1 compatibility), but it'd nicer to let user decide… Still don't know what is better (and how to do it the right way) I also remember Doug Barton had some thoughts about that… -- *Geoffroy Desvernay* C.R.I - Administration systèmes et réseaux Ecole Centrale de Marseille
