Lionel Elie Mamane <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |DUPLICATE --- Comment #5 from Lionel Elie Mamane <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Julien Nabet from comment #4) > I don't know the status of MariaDb (above all, the progress to make it work > on LO) (...), I'm not sure we want or even can > bundle Mysql (in both point of view: technically and licensing). The discussion is not to bundle MySQL, but the *driver* to access MySQL from LibreOffice. The one currently "floating around" uses a GPLed C++ library, namely the MySQL C++ connector, and our policy is no GPLed code in the LibreOffice binaries distributed by The Document Foundation. It could be bundled if it would be rewritten to use only the LGPL C library. Calling it MySQL or MariaDB is mostly political, since the same driver will work for both. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 46259 *** -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
