Hi all, I saw today libmariadbclient was updated to 10.1.24 and dropped the line where it provides libmysqlclient. However, it still ships with the shared libs and conflicts libmysqlclient. I maintain a few packages that require libmysqlclient and I have some installed that require libmariadbclient. So with this conflict and no provision statement, my system is broken. As a temporary fix, the packages I maintain now require libmariadbclient with the hopes that it implicitly provides mysql support too. However, can I realistically depend on this as a fact or not? If not, isn't that a way bigger problem for others as well? Help and advice is much appreciated. Regards, Konstantin
