Bug#1004262: mariadb-server: Instead of being upgraded, mariadb-server gets removed after apt update
Hi! Latest version of MariaDB in Debian unstable/testing/Bookworm is 10.11.2. You might want to consider testing it. If you want to contribute in the open source way to fix this or any other issue, see https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-server/-/wikis/Contributing-to-MariaDB-packaging-in-Debian on how to submit a Merge Request! If you have time to help, please consider these (in order of importance): 1. Review current open MRs at https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-server/-/merge_requests 2. Review items highlighted by Debian QA systems (Lintian, builds etc) and submit a fix to improve the quality: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/mariadb 3. Review what testing we have at https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-server/-/pipelines and think about potential gaps - CI is very important as it is the only way we can prevent regressions in a scalable way 4. Review/follow-up on existing bugs that currently need more information: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?repeatmerged=no=mariadb=mariadb-10.6=mariadb-10.5=mariadb-10.3=mariadb-10.1 MariaDB and C++ skills are useful, but not required. For example reviewing the NEWS for 10.11 requires no coding skills: https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-server/-/merge_requests/37 My request for help from debian-devel in https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2023/02/msg00272.html did not get many responses, so the future of this package depends on how active the users and people who previously reported bugs are in participating in the maintenance of the package. - Otto

Bug#1004262: mariadb-server: Instead of being upgraded, mariadb-server gets removed after apt update
Package: mariadb-server Version: 1:10.5.12-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, mariadb-server-10.6 has hit testing, after `apt update` I found that `apt full-upgrade` want to remove mariadb-server package, along with the 10.5 packages I have mariadb-server manually installed, to keep my system up to date when a new version of mariadb-server-?? hits the repository. I expected that mariadb-server-10.6 would be installed, but that didn't happen. What puzzles me, is that I don't see any reason why the metapackage mariadb-server gets removed, there is clearly a new candidate for it. -- Policy $ apt-cache policy mariadb-server mariadb-server: Installed: 1:10.5.12-1 Candidate: 1:10.6.5-2 Version table: 1:10.6.5-2 500 500 http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian testing/main amd64 Packages 100 http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages *** 1:10.5.12-1 100 100 http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status -- installed mariadb/mysql packages: $ aptitude search -F%p '~imariadb|~imysql' libdbd-mysql-perl libmariadb3 mariadb-client-10.5 mariadb-client-core-10.5 mariadb-common mariadb-server mariadb-server-10.5 mariadb-server-core-10.5 mysql-common php-mysql php7.4-mysql zabbix-server-mysql -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (100, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.15.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages mariadb-server depends on: ii mariadb-server-10.5 1:10.5.12-1 mariadb-server recommends no packages. mariadb-server suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
