Hi Otto! Otto Kekäläinen <otto@debian.org>, 11/11/2019 – 15:06:24 (+0100):
Hello Faustin!
I have been updating the MariaDB 10.3 packaging in Debian to compat level 12, and that includes some changes to how the systemd services are installed. Do you have any comments?
https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-10.3/commits/bugfix/systemd-ru... See my comment on the d14de1c0 WIP commit.
Are there some systemd issues regarding 10.3 that you think we should put in while at this? Yes and it is related to all the extra work that is needed to support both mysql and mariadb systemctl commands (see my comment and Ondrej commit referenced in it).
IMO we should definitively remove aliases from systemd unit files (also suggested by M. Biebl #932289) but I did not have time to get things to move on (https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/1172 or MDEV-15526) and if possible I believe that we should try to upstream it first. So for the moment I have no other changes to suggest in salsa. Faustin
