Conflicts with mysql-common files on CentOS 8 installations

Details

    Description

      When trying to install MariaDB 10.5, 10.4 or even 10.3 from your repos for CentOS 8, and on the side installing postfix with SQL support, which installs mysql-common, you get conflicting files between the two packages and postfix cannot be installed (or MariaDB cannot be installed if you installed postfix first, no matter what)
      This is not resolvable by any exclusions as these are dependencies.
      If you install mariab 10.3.27 from the CentOS repo aside with postfix this error does not occur.

      So at the moment it is not possible to use 10.4 or 10.5 together with postfix on CentOS 8.

      It would be nice if this could be fixed asap.

      Thanks

            Yea sadly I need a higher version than provided by RedHat in this case.
            Ok I will try to reach out to the GhettoForge people then and ask if they could make a package for/with mariadb-connector

            But there is one more thing that is not clear to me.
            Using the mariadb version from appstream on CentOS 8, and then using postfix3 from GF repo does not lead to any conflicts although using the same combination and postfix3 using mysql-libs and mysql-common,
            Only when using mariadb from your CentOS repos leads to this conflicts, so there has to be something different in the way it is packaged by you and by RHEL. And this has nothing to do with the thing that postfix3 uses mysql.
            So right now I can decide if I use the newest version of mariadb or of postfix because both do not work.
            The combination of appstream with either one of the newest versions does though

            This has been fixed in GhettoForge gf-testing repo postfix3-mysql-3.5.9-2.gf.el8.x86_64.rpm.

            I'll close this ticket, as it appears to be no longer an issue.

            The issue is still very much present with dovecot23-mysql as of a year later. Please see MDEV-29531.
