Sergei Golubchik added a comment - 2014-02-15 22:55 hhorak : One observation and one question for you. FYI: after some experimenting I've come up with a different patch, hopefully it's a lot easier to maintain, there is no need to create manually all these dummy functions everywhere, everything is auto-generated from CMakeLists.txt . I'll attach it, in case you're interested. Do you think it may cause any problems if we'll be using this "universal" versioning for all RHEL/Fedora versions? Not only from RHEL7/Fedora21 up?

Honza Horak added a comment - 2014-02-19 15:27 ad 1) I can see CMakeLists.txt in the repository, not necessary to attach it separately. ad 2) It would mean that people compiling their software against original MariaDB binaries for RHEL-6/Fedora 20 and older would end up with binaries not working on RHEL-6/Fedora-20 and older. In RHEL-6 it is not an issue, since there is a different soname version; it can make troubles in Fedora though, but the troubles will only exist until Fedora 20 retires. Well, it's not perfect, but I guess we can live with that; anybody wanting to prepare universal binaries should just build against libraries available in Fedora.
