I did take a look at the port, and some points did not seem clear to me:

• As mariadb is not an existing port yet, why name it mariadb52 and not mariadb ?
• It seems to me that the set branch line is not used and could be suppressed.
• I think parallel_build is usually set at yes by default, so that use_parallel_build yes line does not bring anything.
• Shouldn't the first line of master sites

http://mirrors.supportex.net/mariadb/${distname}/kvm-tarbake-jaunty-x86/ ?

• It is considered that md5 hash only is not sufficient. md5, sha1 and rmd160 are default usually.
• As some time passed, I would suggest to update the port directly to last stable version (5.2.9)

Some of these remarks also apply to mariadb52-server port submission (ticket #29170).

I could then add the port, along with with the server port (ticket #29170). It will also be necessary upon addition to request the addition of a conflict to mariadb with mysql* ports.

cc to ryandesign for the conflict of this port addition with mysql4, mysql5 and mysql5-devel.

Feel free to add the conflicts to the MySQL ports.

While we are at it, how about conflicting and committing the percona submissions as well? #29499 #29500

[NicosPavlov]

Port added in r85113, conflicts added in mysql4, mysql5 and mysql5-devel added respectively in r85115, r85116 and r85117.

I will try to take a look also on percona.
