[Maria-developers] Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric" packages
Hi Daniel, I believe I've fixed the issues for our .debs on Ubuntu 11.10. I made buildbot create packages for MariaDB 5.2.9. They pass the tests. Buildnumber: 1325 Location in archive: /archive/pack/5.2/build-1325/kvm-deb-oneiric-* Maybe you can make them available alongside the existing 5.2.9 packages? It is the exact code version as the other platforms, but the packaging scripts are modified of course. There is no apparmor profile by default (this kept causing new problems, and future packages on Ubuntu will have it disabled by default). Maybe you can help test them as an extra check on top of the automatic ones in buildbot? I also tried getting 5.3 packages built, but Buildbot kept building the latest revision rather than the 5.3.2 one. I can probably solve that somehow, but unless it is urgent I would like to just wait for the next 5.3 release, which will get Oneiric packages automatically. Note that for 5.1, we currently have a problem, as Oneiric has MySQL 5.1.58 while the MariaDB version is 5.1.55. But for the next 5.1 release we will presumably merge MySQL 5.1.58 anyway, so this will get solved and most people will want to use 5.2 anyway I think. I think that's it, let me know if you have questions or other suggestions. - Kristian.

The MariaDB 5.2 Ubuntu packages are only available through the 5.2 repositories. I think the easiest way to add the new Oneiric packages will be to use the mkrepo-ubuntu.sh script to regenerate the entire Ubuntu 5.2 repo. It appears build-1325 has all of the Ubuntu packages. Do you think there will be any issues with if I re-generate the entire Ubuntu 5.2 repo and upload it?
I think it is fine. The new packages have a different version number due to updated ourdelta/bakery, so there should be no risk of confusion between (slightly) different packages with different names. Just be aware that the new packages no longer include a default apparmor profile. This applies to all Ubuntu versions (not just Oneiric). If upgrading users modified their old apparmor profile they will be asked and can choose to keep it, but for default installs, apparmor will be silently disabled. (Ie. maybe a note in the release notes is in order ...)
Before uploading the new repo to the mirrors, can you check my changes in mariadb-tools to ensure they are sane? I've pushed my mariadb-tools branch to launchpad and proposed it for merging so you should have an email about it.
Looks fine, I've pushed it. - Kristian.
