Description
Maybe not an “enhancement”, but I didn't find a better type. It's more of a question.

The files:
- https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/blob/master/databases/mariadb-10.4/files/mariadb-10.4
- https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/blob/master/databases/mariadb-10.5/files/mariadb-10.5
They're the ones used by mysql_select
to put the files in ${prefix}/bin
, right?
MariaDB is having some name changing going on. From 10.4.6 MariaDB have started to use mariadb-*
names. In 10.4 they are symlinks to the mysql_*
version, and in 10.5 it the other way around - the mysql_*
names are symlinks to the mariadb-*
names.
Example: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mysql_upgrade/ (see the dashed info boxes)
Shouldn't the maria-*
names be included as well when adding files to ${prefix}/bin
? Like, if they're changing their nameing convention, so should we.
