Hi Marius, Thank you for your work on Mariadb in bug 35521. You are a hero! Well, my hero at least, since this was blocking me from upgrading things. :-) Marius Bakke writes: > I was about to push this patch to core-updates: > > diff --git a/gnu/packages/databases.scm b/gnu/packages/databases.scm > index 6bfeaad9a2..5d256b1af2 100644 > --- a/gnu/packages/databases.scm > +++ b/gnu/packages/databases.scm > @@ -706,9 +706,6 @@ Language.") > ;; 2030-12-31.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what you said, but it sounds like you were able to test a change on Berlin without committing it to the core-updates branch in Savannah. Is that right? If so, how did you do it? Being able to quickly test changes on better hardware than my puny X200 could prove useful, and I'm sure others would find it useful, too. -- Chris
