[Maria-discuss] aws key management plugin
Hi, on the repo there only seems to be copies of this for Ubuntu yacketty (16.10) and Ubuntu zesty (17.04). Both of these are end of life. Is there supposed to be support for Bionic (18.04)?
Secondly, they are tagged with the mariadb version number. Are they supposed to work across versions because not every version of Mariadb is represented?
Thirdly is there any reason I can't pull the code from Gidhub and compile it myself?
Many thanks in advance
Paul
I found that the package for this plugin exists (or at least did when I installed it a couple months ago) on 18.04 if you setup the repo for MariaDB 10.2, but that it doesn't exist in the repo for 10.3. I did a bunch of digging and couldn't find out why, and when I sent an email to the list about it, nobody ever replied.
For now, unless you decide to compile it yourself, you might want to try running MariaDB 10.2. you should then be able to use this plugin.
If anyone else could also shed more light on this, that would be awesome :) I'd still prefer to go with my original choice of 10.3.

Yes. It's a bug, should be fixed in the next release. Reported as https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-17496

This depends on the plugin type. Key management plugins are supposed to work across versions, but, for example, storage engines aren't.

You totally can.
To build debian packages, clone the repository (or download the source tarball) and run debian/autobake-deb.sh. But because of the bug, you'll need to change that script to force aws plugin to be built (like, remove the if around it).
Or you can build by calling cmake and make, that'll work too, of course.

Cool, thanks! Sergei just wanted to be sure that there wasn't another issue I wasn't aware of. I will proceed to compile from source in the hope that by the time I go production, the version baked by you guys is available. Many thanks for all your hard work.
Cheers Paul

Now it all makes sense. There's one mystery solved :) Thank you for your work on that!
