Rebuild src rpm to require mysql

Post by mrider »

I am trying to port a deployment of cacti for a customer. The customer is moving from cacti-1.0.4 running on Centos 6 to cacti-1.2.17 running on Centos 8. The problem I am encountering is the customer is using mysql instead of MariaDB and the two obviously conflict each other. I grabbed the src rpm for cacti-1.2.17 and changed the spec file to require mysql instead of mariadb. From my reading it seems that cacti supports both mysql and mariadb so this seems a valid approach to getting cacti installed for them. My question is - is this indeed valid or am I really going to break something by using mysql instead of mariadb?

Thanks. :-)

We don't build the RPMs, you would need to discuss that with the maintainers. As long as it meets minimum requirements for Mysql, we don't really care what you use.
