No, our request via CEE/GSS was to provide MariaDB 10.6 LTS or 10.11 LTS at least additionally. We do not request necessarily a rebase, but we would like to be able to use on RHEL 9 at least MariaDB 10.6 to satisfy Moodle installation requirements. Providing MariaDB 10.6 LTS and/or 10.11 LTS as an additional AppStream module would also be sufficient for us. Oh, and if this is really being handled for RHEL 9.3 GA (for autumn, which is still far away), we would prefer MariaDB 10.11 LTS over 10.6 LTS, because 3rd-party software installation requirements are usually not stuck but move forward all the time and 10.6 LTS is the current minimum installation requirement for Moodle. Thanks for the feedback, it's always good to know what appetite for new versions of databases there is. Let me just share at this point, that RHEL Engineering currently does not look at MariaDB 10.6 anymore, but rather at 10.11 directly. However, MariaDB 10.11 will most likely not be available in 9.3 though, rather later. Honza, thank you for the feedback. While it's really sad that RHEL 9.2 didn't deliver a newer MariaDB already, it would be good to know what's really targetable from Red Hat side. Providing an additional AppStream module shouldn't be a huge amount of work. On the same hand I see that the maintainer for MariaDB in Fedora and RHEL seems to be the same but even in Fedora 39 no current MariaDB LTS is available, thus I'm worried about the possible maintenance slowdown in general. I'm happy to discuss this also in the existing CEE/GSS request, if needed. |
