On behalf of the MySQL maintainers I'm filing this transition bug. Please keep the list Cc:ed on replies. The core packages involved here are mysql-5.5, mysql-5.6, mariadb-10.0. In order for mysql-5.6 to enter testing mysql-5.5 has to leave and mariadb-10.0 has to migrate at the same time. Changes in the handling of /etc/mysql/my.cnf (managed by mysql-common and used by both mysql and mariadb) require tightly coupled package relationships. There is no library transition involved, just a few packages that depend on the versioned mysql-*-5.5 packages need updates. mysql-5.5 is planned to be removed from the archive. Some bugs are already filed, some packages should be binNMUable. The transition has already started with the upload of mysql-5.6 to sid a few weeks ago, mysql-5.5 is already uninstallable in sid. Further checking of the dependencies will follow after todays uploads that should fix usability, package relationships and upgrade paths. Please set up a tracker.
