Hello! While working on putting MariaDB 10.5.5 into Debian I noticed that there were a couple of commits that landed more or less on the same day as the release was made and "broke" it just before release. Now there are surprises in a stable release I need to fix and the situation puts extra strain on me.
It is good that many people participate in maintaining the contents of debian/ in the MariaDB Server, because I don't have time to do everything. I would however appreciate that when changes are made, I would be given a chance to review them. I will review them post-release anyway and it would save a lot of trouble, if we can fix stuff during the development cycle and not having to patch a post-release in order to be able to put it forward to Debian/Ubuntu. So, please make PRs of any debian/ changes you make, and feel free to add me as the reviewer (or one of the reviewers). This policy can also be automated using a .github/CODEOWNERS file, so I made a PR about it at https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/1650 Thanks! PS. I will deliver a MariaDB 10.5 and MariaDB in Debian status talk at https://debconf20.debconf.org/talks/98-whats-new-in-mariadb-server-105-and-galera-4/ in case anybody is interested to listen in. -- Follow me at @ottokekalainen _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : maria-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
