I fear a similar fate is going to befall mysql-workbench before too long, since it's been orphaned for a while. Are the Oracle employees still around? Yes we are! Sorry for the long silence. The window for F19 closed so it became less urgent, then I had vacation, was sick, then others here were on vacation but we're all here now and I shall be uploading new packages with MySQL 5.6.13 very soon. They are already ready internally, but I need to do some final checks and a scratch build. I was indeed planning to do that today anyway.

I don't why you are getting problems. One recent example -- I've found that perl-DBD-MySQL got build against community-mysql few weeks back, when the current builds of community-mysql and mariadb were already in the repo. Honestly, I don't have a clue how that could happen, but it was another proof for me, that we should take the safest way as we could. Fortunately, in this case removing mysql-devel and mysql-embedded-devel providers from community-mysql packages should work fine. The new package removed those provides. In any case, this problem is not an argument for community-mysql since even that caused undesired behaviour; renaming to mysql-community would not make any difference. - Bjorn Munch -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

I'm not quite sure what I needed to do and in which order. It doesn't quite follow the normal pattern since I'm not adding a *new* package, just offering to keep maintaining an existing one.

Self introduction, and maintaining MySQL package
Hello, I have just submitted a request for rename of the package community-mysql back to mysql-community: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=958131 See there for more details and rationale. I'm sorry that this took somewhat longer than intended to get out, I had some urgent tasks to attend do, such as getting the first development release of MySQL 5.7 out the door and its source to Launchpad. On the other hand. this also means we have already updated the 5.6 package from the initial GA release 5.6.10 to 5.6.11. Since I do not yet have a sponsor, I cannot upload to fedorapeople.org. Also, Oracle does not have public web host usable for ad-hoc uploads like this, so for the time being I have ulpoaded to my private web page here: http://home.online.no/~bjornmu/fedora/ Please excuse my ISP for thinking the file extension .rpm is music. :-) I have also run a koji scratch build: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5317300 I've had some in-house expert help for preparing the new source RPM and spec file, but I will be responsible for keeping the Fedora packages up-to-date going forward. I have just ordered a laptop on which I will install F18 for this purpose :-) . Development/testing is also being done on a VM in our development lab running Rawhide. About myself: I waw at Sun since they acquired the small database startup I worked for in 2002. When Sun acquired MySQL in 2008, I was working with Release Engineering of PostgreSQL in Sun's own database group; I was responsible for integrating PostgreSQL 8.3 into OpenSolaris. After Sun scaled down its PostgreSQL efforts (I still build Solaris binaries for the PG community when they have new releases), I worked for a few years on maintaining the test framework that comes with MySQL, before I moved back to doing Release Engineering. Now I'm part of the MySQL RE team which is responsible for building and releasing MySQL and other associated products on all the platforms we deliver for, plus we run the large in-house automated build and test farm in the lab in Trondheim, Norway where I'm also located. It took a little time to get this (and myself) ready but future updates should come much faster.

This is not used automatically, it's been used when running rpmlint manually and is included for documentation purposes (and for anoyne else who might want to run rpmlint manually). - Bjorn Munch PS There's something odd with the timing of this email: it dropped into my inbox less that two hours ago and all the Received lines in the header are also from this morning, but the message itself is dated the 13th at 15:05.

The packages pass mtr tests and we've tested some of the packages that depend on MySQL (php, perl-DBD-MySQL, etc.). It all seems to be working well, so I think we're ready to get it into rawhide. I believe Bjørn Munch has already contacted you about how to upload, etc. Yes, I was basically asking about getting upload access. As has been said before, we will allocate resources from the Release Engineering team to maintain this package for Fedora and that will include me. The package we have ready as an upgrade of the existing one removes some no longer needed patches, adds a few new patches, updates the spec file of course, and also adds an rpmlintrc file. It has of course been tested on a Rawhide installation.
