There are a few bugs and blueprints about it, and they show as *implemented* Yes, it's implemented and works well. I use it on Wikimedia servers when I need debug symbols for stock packages. My only gripe is that it would be nice to have awareness of the feature in higher-level tools like apt and synaptic, to allow installation of the debug symbols of any package without slowing down apt-get update or cluttering up the synaptic package list. I'm thinking something similar to apt-get source. The Debian habit of adding -dbg packages to some fraction of binary packages also clutters the package list, but with an architecture that makes apt/synaptic support unlikely. For packages that we build ourselves, it's easier to just disable stripping. -- Tim Starling ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] Maria DB
Umm there was a thread several months ago about how it is used on several of the slave dbs, if I recall. -bawolff On 2013-02-13 8:28 AM, Petr Bena benap...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I have installed Maria DB to all my servers, including production servers few weeks ago, and I found it quite stable and I like it (even the command line tool for working with sql is far better than the one included in mysql pack) It's supported on all latest ubuntu versions from 10.04 UP (maybe even older) - so my question is, are we going to use it on wikimedia production? I think we could migrate beta cluster for now - it has terrible performance and this could help.

Re: [Wikitech-l] Maria DB
Okay - so what is outcome? Should we migrate beta cluster? Are we going to use it in production?

At the risk of derailing the conversation to an unrelated subject, I would rather work on finding a way to keep the db on beta cluster up to date rather than migrate to a whole different SQL implementation that is still not correct. https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36228 -Chris ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] Maria DB
As far as I know we're using a custom mariadb version in production, not the ubuntu version. It would be ideal to use the same versions for everything, but just switching out to MariaDB isn't going to solve anything for us. Also, we're not using MariaDB everywhere in production. We're using a mix of MySQL and MariaDB. Let's not change anything till we know how that's going to work out in production.
