The MySQLdb1 tree is still maintained and needed by packages like mythtv and pyrss, etc. On the other hand, "moist" is designed to be a drop-in replacement of mysqldb but as its author states, "moist is not yet ready for prime-time, and there are likely to be some large structural changes in the near future", I don't think it a good idea to replace mysqldb with it at the moment. > And i would like to know if some TU has interest to provide the new one, if > not, i will gladly create an AUR package. Feel free to create a package for it, though I don't think it will be in [community] anytime soon, since its last commit was in 2012 (quite dead...), and popular packages should be in the AUR already :) Regards, Felix Yan
