W: libmariadb-dev: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/mariadb_config
If the binary name is mariadb_config, the manpage needs to be mariadb_config.1.
Also run 'wrap-and-sort -a -v' to get lists in correct order.
In addition, sort .gitignore and remove duplicate lines.
To change all executables to have a mariadb name I had to:
- Do name changes in every CMakeLists.txt that produces executables
- CREATE_MARIADB_SYMLINK was removed and GET_SYMLINK added by Wlad to reuse the function in other places also
- The scripts/CMakeLists.txt could make use of GET_SYMLINK instead of introducing redundant code, but I thought I'll leave that for next release
- A lot of changes to debian/.install and debian/.links files due to swapping of real executable and symlink. I did not however change the name of the manpages, so the real name is still mysql there and mariadb are symlinks.
- The Windows part needed a change now when we made the executables mariadb -named. MSI (and ZIP) do not support symlinks and to not break backward compatibility we had to include mysql named binaries also. Done by Wlad
Matching libmariadb-dev package contents in official Debian repositories,
the MariaDB Connector/C files should go into a folder using the 'mariadb'
name. For compatibility with sources that expect to find 'mysql' stuff,
create a symlink from include/mysql to include/mariadb.
Using this package any source that expects MySQL Client libraries should
build without changes. Sources that expect MariaDB Connector C should
build using only libmariadb-dev.
Current MariaDB Connector/C does not build quite identically in
this source tree compared to how it build in Debian official.
The remaining differences are tracked in MDEV-14921.
The symlink
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so -> /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.18
was invalid, because the library was not in /usr/lib.
The correct symlink is
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmysqlclient.so -> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmysqlclient.so.18
The new library name libmariadb3 matches the libmariadb.so.3 filename.
Packages that want to build against MariaDB Connector C have as
build-dependency libmariadb-dev and as run-time dependency libmariadb3.
Make the package provide libmariadbclient18 for backwards compatibility,
though compatibility is not always assured. There library did change
to a whole new generation after all, even though ABI compatibility has
been a design goal.
Also do the equivalent change for the -dev package. Packages that
explicitly want to use the MariaDB Connector C should mark it as
their build-depends.
Also provide an empty libmariadbclient18 metapackage to facilitate
upgrades from old MariaDB installs, just like there is an empty
libmysqlclient18 package. Create more of these in the future as needed.
