Description Johan Bergström 2012-02-08 20:54:03 UTC
This MariaDB thing is growing into something interesting. Will try to rename and start pointing my data at this thing instead.
Comment 1 Brian Evans (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-02-14 18:33:28 UTC
This is included in the MySQL overlay.

You can get the overlay using layman.

Note that 5.3.3 is an rc version and is masked even in the overlay.
Comment 2 Johan Bergström 2012-03-05 03:44:13 UTC
Thanks for the input. I've been using stuff from the overlay and it's been working out nicely! 5.3.5 was just released as GA, so I'm guessing it's suitable for gentoo-x86? No rush at all, just a friendly notice.

InOverlay. Needs some test poking.
Comment 4 Vasilis Lourdas 2012-11-13 15:30:25 UTC
Ok, sorry for waking up this old bug. I know the mysql overlay contains ebuilds for MariaDB. I'm interested in version 5.3.x, which is currently masked. What can I do to help testing and get this out of mask?

Is there a reason you cannot use the "non-masked" 5.5.x ? If it is a purely "local" interest, you can still just unmask it :)

I'd like to stick to 5.3 at the moment, which is based on MySQL 5.1.x.
