Description: This is a re-review request for a package rename as described at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Renaming_Process. There was already a
renaming review in order to rename mysql to MySQL (bug# 917740), but after that
happened we've found out that MySQL name is problematic and we should have used
a different one, while the best alternative seems to be community-mysql.
It is still valid, that we're making "mysql" only a virtual provider in F19+ --
the same as it was in case of bug# 917740.
community-mysql also doesn't obsolete mysql and MySQL packages, because it will
be done by mariadb package.
The only difference between MySQL and community-mysql packages is the package
name and that community-mysql will provide "mysql" symbol. Preferring mariadb
before community-mysql will be ensured by versions of provides (mariadb defines
epoch 1).
MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. MySQL is a
client/server implementation consisting of a server daemon (mysqld) and many
different client programs and libraries. The base package contains the standard
MySQL client programs and generic MySQL files.
