While I've done so now in the recent upload, I think this is misguided: the mysql-server implementations are not nearly compatible enough to allow switching between them. * mysql_install_db takes different parameters (--force is missing in 5.7) * mariadb sets up users with a default plugin of `unix_socket` which needs workarounding * --skip-grant works differently between mysql and mariadb (mariadb does not allow SET PASSWORD after FLUSH PRIVILEGES in this mode) * the default character sets differ, and as such the valid indexes that can be created differ. None of these are just theoretical issues. -- christian hofstaedtler <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Pkg-ruby-extras-maintainers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-ruby-extras-maintainers
