Bug#848287: python-testing.mysqld: (build-)depends on mysql-{client,server}
Control: severity -1 important Hi, > We're aiming at dropping mysql from testing/stretch because of concerns from > the > security team. See email threads in debian-release@ and pkg-mysql-maint@. ok, that changes things. It's very unfortunate that this was not really announced anywhere. Still, lowering severity as this, per se, is not an RC bug. This package depends on mysql-server, and this is reality, and there is nothing that prevents it from doing so if it does for a good reason. In the case that mysql-server is removed from testing, so will this package, anyway. I am trying to port it to mariadb, though. -nik -- PGP-Fingerprint: 3C9D 54A4 7575 C026 FB17 FD26 B79A 3C16 A0C4 F296 Dominik George · Hundeshagenstr. 26 · 53225 Bonn Mobile: +49-1520-1981389 · https://www.dominik-george.de/ Teckids e.V. · FrOSCon e.V.

We're aiming at dropping mysql from testing/stretch because of concerns from the security team. See email threads in debian-release@ and pkg-mysql-maint@. Cheers, Emilio

Hi, > You should have kept me in Cc if you wanted me to see your reply and have a > chance to reply. sorry, I just cannot remember that the Debian BTS does not automatically notify the submitter ☹. So, I have several problems: * I cannot find the formal transition for this. * I cannot see that mysql-server will be removed from stretch. As a matter of sad fact, testing.mysqld does not work with mariadb right now. What is wrong with depending on mysql-server, given that mysql-server will still exist although mariadb will become the default? -nik -- PGP-Fingerprint: 3C9D 54A4 7575 C026 FB17 FD26 B79A 3C16 A0C4 F296 Dominik George · Hundeshagenstr. 26 · 53225 Bonn Mobile: +49-1520-1981389 · https://www.dominik-george.de/ Teckids e.V. · FrOSCon e.V.

Lowering priority to important (you said "should"). As we are in a transition freeze and nothing along that lines will happen to stretch, I do not see why this should remove python-testing.mysqld and all packages that depend on it from testing. -nik -- PGP-Fingerprint: 3C9D 54A4 7575 C026 FB17 FD26 B79A 3C16 A0C4 F296 Dominik George · Hundeshagenstr. 26 · 53225 Bonn Mobile: +49-1520-1981389 · https://www.dominik-george.de/ Teckids e.V. · FrOSCon e.V.

Source: python-testing.mysqld Version: 1.4.0-1 Severity: serious Your package (build-)depends on mysql-server/client. Since we're transitioning to mariadb as the default mysql provider, you should switch your build dependencies and dependencies to something like: default-mysql-server | virtual-mysql-server, default-mysql-client | virtual-mysql-client I have seen in your override that you have forwarded this upstream. I am filing this anyway to keep track of this along with the rest of the packages.
