Hello List !
I can't get rid of my dependency problems. (MySQL has more conflicts than
any soap opera :-)) Maybe someone can give me a hint !
Here is the current situation:
(src: mysql -> non-free)
mysql server + docs
mysql-client client + all libraries
mysql-devel header
(src: mysql-freebits -> main)
mysql-base client
mysql-doc doc
mysql-dev header + all libraries
This can't go because a shared lib on which the client depend has nothing
to do in -dev; the structure is not clear to the user; soon there will be
two complete new upstream versions: an old GPL'ed and the recent (in
non-free). So I made a new scheme:
(src: mysql -> non-free)
mysql-server
mysql-client
mysql-doc
mysql-dev
mysql-bench (never packaged before)
(src: mysql-gpl -> main)
mysql-gpl-server (released to GPL at mid-june)
mysql-gpl-client
mysql-gpl-doc
mysql-gpl-dev
mysql-gpl-bench
But... How to make the dependencies ? The current situation is that
whenever I change from the GPL'ed to the non-free I have to do a
"dpkg -i --auto-deconfigure *-gpl-*.deb"
TWICE before it really works.
If someone is willing to help me out, I will post him every control file I
have. I do not post it to the list because this mail is already long
enough.
Thousand thanks in advance !
read you,
-christian-
