Additionally this https://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/#mirror=23Media&version=10.0&distro_release=opensuse13-amd64&distro=openSUSE oly descirebsan option to add the repository from command line. YasT GUI has an entry for "software repositories". Please *do not think command-line* (or not only) . SuSE users often don't! For some people the primary reason to use SuSE is that it has a very strong GUI for managing the system. You can manage SuSE 95% without command line at all. -- Peter On Wed, Nov 26, 2014 at 10:12 AM, Peter Laursen <peter_laursen@webyog.com> wrote:
OK! :-)
I'll summarize the points as I see them.
1) document what must be removed in advance if MySQL was installed with the distro CD/DVD and/or offficial repo's of the distro. 2) figure out the problem with KDE and take a decision if this will be fixed or not (I think it will be difficult) 3) expose packages installed in "rpm -qa" command 4) support activating/deactivating and starting/stopping service from YaST "Service Management" GUI.
(and please add TokuDB and InfiniDB soon. ¨'playing around' with TokuDB was my primary motivation for all this)

Hi, Daniel!
Perhaps we should put a note for every new platform that we add (was CentOS 7, now it's openSUSE) that this is a new platform, just added, a first release for it, so while binaries are same as everywhere and stable, the packaging (conflicts, dependencies) is new and might have some rough edges?
Peter, I've created MDEV-7211 for this issue to make sure it won't be forgotten.
Regards, Sergei

I *CERTAINLY* think this
is premature taken this discussion into account!
And I believe this "You will also be prompted about a conflict between openSUSE's own MariaDB 5.5 client package and the MariaDB client
is wrong. It may be correct for 12.2 but 12.3 does not have the MariaDB 5.5 client package. It had 10.0.13 (and I think also some client package from Oracle - probably for some compability reason.
What about the conflicts on OpenSuSE 12.3 *1) with KDE and *2) with MariaDB 10.0.13 as installed from the distro DVD?
