SUMMARY
Several MariaDB files are missing when doing a fresh install. I'm unable to
migrate to MySQL Internal DB. There are several bugs, but they all appear to
be related to packaging MariaDB. I'll try to document them all here in way
that makes sense.
When using the Database Migration tool, MariaDB files are not detected by
digiKam. See screenshot "migration". The MariaDB files have the "Find" button
instead of the "Change" button. When I point the binaries to an installation
of MariaDB using the "Find" button to a different MariaDB installation
installed via homebrew into /opt/homebrew/, I get an error message "Internal
server is not used and not active!" (see screenshot "Internal server").
Further research shows the mariadb symlinks in
/Applications/digiKam.org/digikam.app/Contents/etc and
/Applications/digiKam.org/digikam.app/Contents/lib don't actually point to any
binaries (see screenshot "symlinks"). Also, none of the MariaDB binaries exist
anywhere in the /Applications/digiKam.org/digikam.app/Contents subtree,
including mariadbd, mariadb-admin, mariadb-install-db, and mariadb-upgrade.
Not all of the *.sql files needed to create a new MariaDB database exist in the
digiKam subtree.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Fresh install of digiKam
2. Configure digiKam normally with SQLLite
3. Add a few images to the library
4. Shut down digiKam
5. Start digiKam
6. Navigate to Settings->Database Migration
7. Select MySQL Internal as the destination type
OBSERVED RESULT
Unable to migrate to MySQL Internal.
EXPECTED RESULT
Migration tool works as before. The last time I used the migration was several
versions ago. Maybe 7.x something, or maybe early 8.x.
