[Maria-discuss] installing mariadb using rpm
hello - i was following an earlier thread titled: [Maria-discuss] Install MariaDB repo official Centos-7 this is the first time i have attempted an RPM install. so i decided to try it myself, using 10.2 on a new Centos7 installation created in google-console. the installation went perfectly, but now i have a question. i let mariadb generate my repo using this link: https://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/#mirror=jaleco&distro=CentOS&distro_release=centos7-amd64--centos7&version=10.2 and the following repo was generated: # MariaDB 10.2 CentOS repository list - created 2017-11-28 17:28 UTC # http://downloads.mariadb.org/mariadb/repositories/ [mariadb] name = MariaDB baseurl = http://yum.mariadb.org/10.2/centos7-amd64 gpgkey= https://yum.mariadb.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-MariaDB gpgcheck=1 my question: when i cat /proc/cpuinfo, i see the following: vendor_id : GenuineIntel model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU @ 2.30GHz and yet the repo specifies "centos7-amd64". does it matter that amd64 is being specified rather than Intel? Thank you, Mark Edwards

does it matter that amd64 is being specified rather than Intel? x86_64 was invented by AMD and cross-licensed by Intel a decade ago https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64
when you look in the parent repository (http://yum.mariadb.org/10.2/), i also see: centos7-ppc64 centos7-ppc64le centos6-x86 this is why i was a bit confused. however, i am just thrilled to have accomplished my first successful repo install.
