RHEL/CentOS 7
Description
Courtesy of tturenko's tests
RHEL 7 and CentOS 7 have a package called mariadb-libs in the default installation:
mariadb-libs-5.5.56-2.el7.x86_64
|
It used to cause troubles for our installation, so our packaging is now aware of it in the form of (at least)
IF(RPM MATCHES "(rhel|centos)[67]")
|
SET(CPACK_RPM_common_PACKAGE_REQUIRES "MariaDB-compat")
|
SET(CPACK_RPM_compat_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS "mariadb-libs < 1:10.1.0")
|
ENDIF()
|
However, it causes a weird effect, which is probably unexpected and likely undesired.
Let's say I remove the package first, before installing any MariaDB packages. It removes easily and only pulls postfix along:
[buildbot@centos74-amd64 ~]$ rpm -qa | grep mariadb-libs
|
mariadb-libs-5.5.56-2.el7.x86_64
|
[buildbot@centos74-amd64 ~]$ sudo yum remove -y mariadb-libs
|

Complete!

Then I install a bunch of MariaDB packages, they install all right.
There is still no mariadb-libs of course.
But if I try to remove it, instead yum removes our MariaDB-compat, which in turns pulls together the whole installed set:
[buildbot@centos74-amd64 ~]$ rpm -qa | grep mariadb-libs
|
[buildbot@centos74-amd64 ~]$ sudo yum remove -y mariadb-libs

I only checked 10.5 and 10.6, but the packaging logic looks the same everywhere.
