As I emailed before, the plan was to get mysql-5.6 into unstable prior to freeze; however we hit a snag that needed investigation upstream which has delayed things a bit; specifically an ABI enum change - Norvald from Oracle has done some in-depth investigate into this problem: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-mysql-maint/2014-September/007040.html The break is a minor one and only impacts three in-archive packages that would need a no-change rebuild post upload of mysql-5.6; so that we don't end up with a crazy Debian specific version of libmysqlclient, the recommendation is that we don't undertake a full transition but deal with the three exceptions as a one off, and resolve the soname version bump with mysql-5.7 in the future. I'm not 100% comfortable with this but it appears to be the best compromise we can come up with. If the release team is OK with this, we'll go ahead and upload mysql-5.6 to unstable and raise bugs for the three impacted packages. Please can you confirm. Robie and I are also working with Percona on PXC 5.6 (and PS 5.6); that might not land in time so percona-xtradb-cluster-5.5 might have to skip this release as I want to have a base compatibility of 5.6 for this Debian release.
