Hello, please apply following command to the package SPECfile: sed -i "s/mysql-devel/mariadb-connector-c-devel/" $(fedpkg gimmespec) ; More patch will be necessary, since your package is not bale to locate the mariadb library properly. I'll look more into it an post my results. This change is currently applicable to the Rawhide (f28) only. For more information check the tracking bugzilla.
The build requirement in the qsf spec was updated. Thanks. Please note that the MySQL backend is disabled by default, so maybe that's why it didn't look like it can find the mariadb library.
