Spec URL: http://hhorak.fedorapeople.org/mysql-rename/community-mysql.spec SRPM URL: http://hhorak.fedorapeople.org/mysql-rename/community-mysql-5.5.30-5.fc18.src.rpm Description: This is a re-review request for a package rename as described at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Renaming_Process. There was already a renaming review in order to rename mysql to MySQL (bug# 917740), but after that happened we've found out that MySQL name is problematic and we should have used a different one, while the best alternative seems to be community-mysql. It is still valid, that we're making "mysql" only a virtual provider in F19+ -- the same as it was in case of bug# 917740. community-mysql also doesn't obsolete mysql and MySQL packages, because it will be done by mariadb package. The only difference between MySQL and community-mysql packages is the package name and that community-mysql will provide "mysql" symbol. Preferring mariadb before community-mysql will be ensured by versions of provides (mariadb defines epoch 1). 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
Created attachment 713937 [details] Difference between MySQL.spec and community-mysql.spec To make the review easier for reviewer I'm attaching difference between already reviewed MySQL.spec and proposed community-mysql.spec
I pushed the spec & srpm through fedora-review and haven't spotted any problem. I won't put the whole review here because it's the same as in bug #917740, comment #1. I checked the Obsoletes & Provides in mariadb and community-mysql and it is as Honza described above. I consider this package APPROVED.
