Public bug reported: MythTV (especially mythtv-database) seem to require MySQL as database backend. While being fully compatible, MariaDB seems not to be an option for the current package. On my system, installing mythtv would uninstall the MariaDB packages and instead install the MySQL suite. Which for sure is not what I want.
I'm running Ubuntu 15.10, apt-cache policy for mythtv-backend is mythtv-backend: Installiert: (keine) Installationskandidat: 2:0.27.1+fixes.20140624.aa822f5-0ubuntu6 Versionstabelle: 2:0.27.1+fixes.20140624.aa822f5-0ubuntu6 0 500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ wily/multiverse amd64 Packages Could someone of the package maintainers update the dependencies so that mythtv-database accepts also MariaDB as backend? Or am I missing something here? ** Affects: mythtv (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/1518924 Title: mythtv cannot be used with mariadb-server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythtv/+bug/1518924/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
