Package: libmariadbclient-dev 2014-08-26 15:52 GMT+03:00 Kristian Nielsen <kniel...@knielsen-hq.org>: > But if I understand correctly, now it is possible to install packages > libmariadbclient and package libmysqlclient-dev at the same time. So the > problem should no longer apply.
Yes, libmysqlclient-dev is co-installable with libmariadbclient18. The package libmysqlclient-dev (and by extension also libmysqld-dev) is not co-installable with libmariadbclient-dev. Also note that the MariaDB LGPL client version passed the NEW queue yesterday and now these new pacakges are available in experimental: libmariadb-client-lgpl-dev, libmariadb-client-lgpl-dev-compat, libmariadb2 I have decided to simply remove the Provides line as requested, and despite mariadb-client-lgpl in experimental now, I will not haste to remove the mariadb-5.5 source package generated libmariadbclient package completely yet. I also removed the identical Provides line in libmariadbd-dev with the same motivations described in this bug report. The fix is now committed in: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-mysql/mariadb-5.5.git/commit/?id=bc637404c6d7bd30803f08013615d1fec160b049 Note: My sponsor hasn't responded to e-mail for some days now and seems busy -- if you are a DD following this issue and think it really is grave, feel free to do a non-maintainer upload of 5.5.39-2 to get the fix out quickly. The source repo is listed above and the packaging release process documented in debian/README.Maintainer if you are unfamiliar with this git repo layout. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
