Spec URL: http://hhorak.fedorapeople.org/mysql-rename/MySQL.spec SRPM URL: http://hhorak.fedorapeople.org/mysql-rename/MySQL-5.5.30-2.fc18.src.rpm Description: This is a re-review request for a package rename as described at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Renaming_Process -- we want to rename package "mysql" to "MySQL" and make "mysql" only a virtual provider in F19+. MySQL will correspond with RPM packages provided by Oracle. As a result of this renaming there will be less conflicts with another mysql implementation -- MariaDB -- in Fedora repository. MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. MySQL is a client/server implementation consisting of a server daemon (mysqld) and many different client programs and libraries. The base package contains the standard MySQL client programs and generic MySQL files. Fedora Account System Username: hhorak
According to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Renaming_Process I must state that I've checked the package for the proper Obsoletes and Provides, so I'm doing it now :-) This case is little more complicated. Even this is a renaming review, MySQL is not a replacement for mysql. The replacement is mariadb (bug #875150), which contains proper Obsoletes and Provides. There are no Obsoletes and Provides in MySQL.spec but that's completely OK. The only note I have is that %clean section can be safely removed.
