RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Michal Schorm 2021-02-16 08:23:13 UTC
MariaDB switched to using "DBD::MariaDB" Perl database driver instead of the "DBD::mysql" in MariaDB 10.5.0 version
    
Upstream issue:
  https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-19755
    
Upstream commit:
  https://github.com/MariaDB/server/commit/5cc2096f93b7f130b36f8bc0fc43440db9a848e4#diff-8576e5effae0770fc984e35e6749c43a8946489a1b478ce54facb3b9086622bf
    
Scripts that rely on a specific driver won't work with differently named driver
Following scripts are affected:
  mysql_convert_table_format.sh
  mysql_setpermission.sh
  mysqlhotcopy.sh
  mytop.sh
as well as several tests for various components
    
The package perl-DBD-MariaDB is not present in RHEL8, so we must revert this upstream change
   
Testing:
Following command:
  mysql_setpermission --user=root --host=127.0.0.1 --port=3306
Would fail with:
  install_driver(MariaDB) failed: Can't locate DBD/MariaDB.pm in @INC (you may need to install the DBD::MariaDB module)
