This is likely a minor packaging bug on our part as we used a versioned mysql-client (>= 4.1) in the holland-mysqldump control file and some other subpackages. I don't believe we've ever distributed holland to any debian based platform that is < 4.1 so this is a little silly and seems to be confused by percona's debian package version for some reason. This is a fairly minor change to the package control file so we can probably push this out in the next day or so.
In the meantime, as Tim suggested you can rebuild debs from the source. Something like: $ sudo apt-get install devscripts debhelper python-setuptools python-sphinx python-support $ wget https://launchpad.net/holland-backup/1.0/1.0.6/+download/holland-1.0.6.tar.gz $ tar zxvf holland-1.0.6.tar.gz $ cd holland-1.0.6 $ cp -a contrib/debian/ debian/ $ sed -i 's/mysql-client (>= 4.1)/mysql-client/g' debian/control $ debuild --no-tgz-check -us -uc Then installing these updates packages should fix the conflict with percona-server: $ dpkg -i ../holland_1.0.6-1_all.deb ../holland-common_1.0.6-1_all.deb ../holland-mysqldump_1.0.6-1_all.deb ../holland-xtrabackup_1.0.6-1_all.deb And then a normal install of percona-server (either before or after) shouldn't cause any outstanding issues. The magic here is simply correcting the versioned mysql-client depends in debian/control with sed. After some testing I'll push these changes to our OBS repos. ~Andrew On Tue, Mar 6, 2012 at 7:41 AM, Tim Soderstrom <[email protected]> wrote: > I will have to look at this a bit later, time permitting, but I think the > problem is that the Percona DEBs are not exposing all their capabilities > properly.
