Hi all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I know it's been much awaited, but I didn't have a lot of faith in it |
| 4 |
previously, so I didn't want to destroy the systems of our ~arch users |
| 5 |
by releasing MySQL/MariaDB 5.5.x on them. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
However, as of today, I believe that it is sufficiently ready to be used |
| 8 |
on ~arch systems, and I will be updating the global package.mask to now |
| 9 |
only block MySQL 5.6. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
MySQL 5.6 does not pass it's own testsuite yet, so it'll be a while |
| 12 |
before it becomes more available. If you want it sooner, be sure to keep |
| 13 |
an eye on the mysql team overlay! |

I'd like to thank Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (jmbsvicetto) and Brian |
| 16 |
Evans <grknight@×××××××.com> for their tireless fighting with the |
| 17 |
ebuilds. |
