Public bug reported: I want to use MariaDB as a substutute for Mysql in Drupal 7, as drupal does indeed support, but the package dependencies here demand mysql. Could the parallel packages from MariaDB be set as acceptable alternatives?
The MariaDB packages are available via: # MariaDB 5.5 repository list - created 2013-01-28 05:07 UTC # http://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/ deb http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/mariadb/repo/5.5/ubuntu precise main deb-src http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/mariadb/repo/5.5/ubuntu precise main with the apt-key given: sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0xcbcb082a1bb943db Thank you.
