 Hi,

we get Broken dependencies reports for package mysql in Rawhide:

{{{
 mysql has broken dependencies in the rawhide tree:
 On x86_64:
         mysql-embedded-devel-5.5.30-1.fc19.i686 requires real-mysql-
 embedded(x86-32) = 0:5.5.30-1.fc19
         mysql-embedded-devel-5.5.30-1.fc19.i686 requires libmysqld.so.0
 On x86_64:
         mysql-devel-5.5.30-1.fc19.i686 requires real-mysql(x86-32) =
 0:5.5.30-1.fc19
 Please resolve this as soon as possible.
 }}}

It is most probably caused by presence of mysql-embedded-devel.i686 in
 x86_64 repository but missing mysql-embedded.i686 there, which is needed
 by -devel package. The same situation is with mysql-devel.i686 and
 mysql.i686.

I'd say that if there is i686 -devel package in the repo, it should also
 include the depended one. Or what do I miss?

It's almost certainly a packaging bug in mysql ( nothing Provides real-
 mysql%{?_isa} )

and... nothing rel-eng can/should do about that, that's something for pkg

Nothing provides it in x86_64 repo, because the package
 mysql-5.5.30-1.fc19.i686 is not there. In i686 repo there is:

{{{
 $ repoquery --whatprovides 'real-mysql-devel(x86-32)' --disablerepo=*
 --enablerepo=rawhide --archlist=i686
 mysql-devel-0:5.5.30-1.fc19.i686
 }}}

So I still think it's up to rel-eng to include mysql-5.5.30-1.fc19.i686 in
 x86_64 if there is mysql-devel-5.5.30-1.fc19.i686 there.

Comment:

To summarize the above comment to a simple question: "Why mysql.i686 and
 mysql-embedded.i686 are not included in x86_64 repositories?"

Also re-opening since otherwise it could be forgotten without answer.

Comment:

OK, looking closer, looks like the problems may actually conflicts between
 mariadb and mysql.

mariadb currently Obsoletes mysql, so some if it's packages are no longer
 getting included and multilib'd properly.

Suggestions include:
 1.  drop Obsoletes from mariadb (as long as fedora still provides any real
 package named mysql)
 2.  retire 'mysql' package, and re-review and bring back named as
 something else (like real-mysql)
 3.  some other better solution ??

Just fyi I'm actually on of the packagers of mariadb and mysql.

Replying to [comment:6 rdieter]:

between mariadb and mysql.

Yes, they conflict explicitly, all packages conflict including -devel, so
 I don't see the reason why only -devel is included but not the base
 package.
> mariadb currently Obsoletes mysql, so some if it's packages are no

Again, all mariadb packages obsolete the same mysql alternatives, so I'm
 still getting the point why mysql-embedded-devel package should behave in
 a different manner than mysql-embedded.

What about 4.: Dropping all 32bit mysql packages from x86_64 repository.
 We have already 32bit mariadb packages instead of them and they should be
 actually used.

How is the list of multilib packages actually handled? Could I as a
 packager to add or remove multilib packages or you can do it? Or is that
 somehow generated?

Comment (by rdieter):

The simple rules mash uses to determine if a pkg should be multilib'd is:
 1.  is it named *-devel , 2. does it contain shared libraries (anything
 matching /lib*/lib*.so.*), plus a bunch of other stuff, but that should
 give you the general idea.  packagers generally do not have control of
 this.

For details, install 'mash' pkg, and examine multilib.py

Thanks for the explanation, it does answer why -devel packages are
 included. But still -- if we include -devel packages, then we need also
 all it's dependencies. But if we cannot include depended packages because
 they are obsoleted, we shouldn't include the -devel packages either
 (they're obsoleted in the same way).

So I see actually two ways how to solve that:
 1. teach mash to ignore obsoleted packages from multilib
 2. add mysql packages to blacklist in mash

Actually I believe this would be the right solution, so I reported a bug
 against mash: rhbz# 913556.

k, things should get resolved once the mash issue is resolved, not much
 else rel-eng'y to do here.
