[MariaDB developers] Re: Avoiding regressions in upgrades

Here is a case in point about the problem with unnecessary deprecation warnings. It's not just me ;-): https://mariadb.com/kb/en/suppress-mariadb-11-deprecation-warnings/ Is there a way to prevent deprecation warnings from appearing when executing the 'mysql' and 'mysqldump' commands? There are applications, such as Zabbix, that expect an XML when executing these commands, and this warning breaks the format. I mean messages like this: "mariadb mysql: Deprecated program namein a future release, use '/usr/bin/mariadb' instead" Why remove backwards compatibility with binary names? There's no technical necessity to do so, and it breaks things for the users. - Kristian.
