This was first reported here:
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/odd-mariadb-connector-c-error-on-update/
As far as I can tell, it looks like the problem is that our MariaDB-devel package should take precedence over the mariadb-connector-c-devel package from the standard RHEL 8 repo, but it currently doesn't.
We solved a similar problem for the MariaDB-devel package by making mariadb-connector-c an "alternative name" for the MariaDB-devel package:
ELSEIF(RPM MATCHES "(rhel|centos)8")
|
...
|
ALTERNATIVE_NAME("shared" "mariadb-connector-c" ${MARIADB_CONNECTOR_C_VERSION}-1)
|
ALTERNATIVE_NAME("shared" "mariadb-connector-c-config" ${MARIADB_CONNECTOR_C_VERSION}-1)
|
...
|
ENDIF()
|
https://github.com/MariaDB/server/blob/mariadb-10.5.5/cmake/cpack_rpm.cmake#L238
I suspect that we need a similar rule to add mariadb-connector-c-devel as an alternative name for the MariaDB-devel package.
