This is a tracking bug for Change: MySQL 8 For more details, see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/MySQL_8 Update of MySQL ( community-mysql package) in Fedora from 5.7 to 8.0 version.
*** Bug 1583032 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
On the face of it, this is 'testable' now, there have been 8.0 builds tagged for f29 for several weeks now.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 29 development cycle. Changing version to '29'.
Today is the '100% code complete deadline' Change Checkpoint[1], meaning that Fedora 29 Changes must now be code complete. All the code required to enable to the new change should now be finished. If your Change is code complete, please update the status of this tracker back to "ON_QA". The change does not have to be fully tested by this deadline. We have now reached the Beta freeze. If your Change is not code complete, you need to request a Freeze Exception[2] or invoke the contingency plan.

I checked the status today. MySQL 8.0.12 is available for rawhide: community-mysql-0:8.0.12-1.fc29.x86_64 MySQL 5.7.22 module is available for rawhide community-mysql-5.7.22-1.module_2068+691c797f.x86_64 --- I checked both once more to be sure they are installable and runable. So from my POV the work here is done.
This Change appears to have been implemented for Fedora 29. If it is not closed, please let me know so I can re-open it against Rawhide.
