Dear list,

we're actually using

# lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    :core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch
Distributor ID: CentOS
Description:    CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core) 
Release:        7.2.1511
Codename:       Core

on our database server using 

# yum info mariadb-server

Installed Packages

This version of MariaDB namely 5.5 is officially supported [1] until April 2017.

How does CentOS 7 deal with this circumstance ? What will happen when 5.5 runs 
out ?
Do I have to change the repositories manually [2] or does the change happen 
'automagically' ?

kind regards,

Jan
