is caused by MDEV-30203 Move mysql symlinks to different package Closed

 Description   

When MariaDB-client-compat and/or MariaDB-server-compat are uninstalled, it also causes removal of MariaDB-columnstore-engine package – only it, other MariaDB packages remain installed. It seems strange, but maybe it's intentional

$ sudo yum remove MariaDB-client-compat MariaDB-server-compat
 
Dependencies resolved.

Remove  10 Packages

And indeed,

$ sudo rpm -q MariaDB-columnstore-engine --requires | grep compat
 
MariaDB-client-compat
 
MariaDB-server-compat

while for MariaDB-server, MariaDB-client and apparently other packages it is not the case.

Yes this is because of:

The columnstore is so tied to using the mysql names that the hard requires will remove the columnstore-engine package.

Easy to remove when columnstore updates.
