| Description |
|
Package mariadb-client-5.5 provides innotop (thank you!) which in turn requires libterm-readkey-perl. However, that dependency is currently not defined. I propose to add a "suggests" (or even a "recommends") dependency, following the approach of the stock Debian package for mysql-client-5.5. |

Another issue (already covered by If the shipped innotop doesnt get upgraded, removing innotop from the packages would be a solution as it might end up replacing a more recent innotop installed by the user at each MariaDB package upgrade. |

I'd love to see it updated instead of removed since at least Debian doesn't provide it as a separate package. In order for MariaDB to retain the status of being a true drop-in replacement for MySQL you want to keep innotop for as long as the equivalent MySQL package does. Thanks |
