Public bug reported: Community member Otto Kekäläinen has done a good job keeping our MariaDB packages updated with latest from upstream. This is no small task. While preparing the 5.5.41 updates, he asked that we drop the mariadb-5.5 package from vivid and newer -- he would rather see vivid and newer users on mariadb-10.0, instead, which is already packaged.
The maintenance burden is high enough that I do not think anyone else will step forward to maintain mariadb-5.5 on vivid and newer releases. mariadb-5.5 is removed from Debian. Please remove mariadb-5.5 from vivid and newer releases. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mariadb-5.5/+bug/1414755 https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/what-is-mariadb-100/ https://packages.debian.org/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&searchon=sourcenames&keywords=mariadb Thanks ** Affects: mariadb-5.5 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1417328 Title: Please remove mariadb-5.5 from vivid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mariadb-5.5/+bug/1417328/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
