Debian Buster

FYI: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=863968

There is no such package! mytop is only available as a part of the package mariadb-client-10.3 (which cannot be installed togather with official MariaDB packages):
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=mytop&mode=path&suite=stable&arch=any

So, when you install official MariaDB packages into Buster, you will end up with no mytop and no way to install it. Sigh.

azurit if its significantly important can you please take over the Debian or upstream maintenance of this script.

ref: MDEV-22552

Daniel so it won't be included in official MariaDB packages? Why it was removed anyway?

The plan is, indeed, to include it into official MariaDB packages, see MDEV-22552

Hello!

There is no mytop package in Debian Buster since upstream is dead.

To get mytop, just run `apt instal mariadb-client` and you will have /usr/bin/mytop available.

If you want to use MariaDB.org repositories, you need to have at least version 10.5 as this improvement was upstreamed from Debian to MariaDB in the 10.5 development cycle: https://github.com/MariaDB/server/commit/e0e5d8c5942a1eb0b0ae05b6296286193073e571

I will close this bug as "won't fix", as we will not be backporting mytop to older MariaDB releases, as it would change the packaging and that is against good practices of how stable releases are maintained.
