Dear fellow Fedorans,
It seems that python-mysqlclient will now transparently upgrade python- mysql since 2.1.1-2 (for Fedora):
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-mysqlclient/c/1da9400c1c9c8eb8b044... and 1.4.6-6 (EPEL 8)
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-mysqlclient/c/cc24faae44f40898ba87...
(python-mysql was never in EPEL9)
The two upstreams are the same (python-mysql points to https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient-python but that just redirects to https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient)
However it seems that python-mysql itself is not retired -- should it? Seems like there's no release in which trying to install it won't just install python-mysqlclient instead anyway.
Yes, that was the plan. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1929101
The maintainers don't seem to overlap:
- python-mysql maintained by mschorm and hobbes1069
- python-mysqlclient maintained by fab
(the changes to make mysqlclient obsolete mysql are made by non- maintainers)
Best regards,
