mariadb vs community-mysql on F30

[Paolo Galtieri]

Folks I have an issue with mariadb and community-mysql.  I installed 
mysql-workbench.  When I run it it shows a conflict between it and the 
running mysql server, namely mysql-workbench is version 8.0.16 and 
mariadb is 10.3.12.  So I decided to remove mariadb, i.e. I did:

yum remove mariadb-common mariadb-connector-c mariadb-embedded 
mariadb-errmsg

In doing this a total of 62 packages were removed:

I then did an install of community mysql:

Error Summary

So how do I install the community-mysql instead of the mariadb server, 
and why are so many packages removed when I remove the mariadb packages?

Why are libreoffice-calc, libreoffice-draw, libreoffice-math removed?

Any help is appreciated.

I think you are caught in a fork conflict.  Both are a fork of mysql,
and I vaguely recall there was a disagreement about the direction of
mariadb that led to the creation of community-mysql.  Or maybe
it was with the actual mysql, at Oracle now.  It's kind of
like the python2 / python3 imbroglio.  Eventually they will co-exist, or
one will triumph, but until then, users are stuck.

Perhaps versions of mysql and mysql-workbench from the same repo would 
be compatible.  Do they exist?

MariaDB & MySQL maintainer here.

Let's sort out some things first:
* yeah, use DNF in Fedora. There shouldn't be any need to use yum anymore
* We are talking about Fedora 30, which has currently MariaDB 10.3.12
nad MySQL 8.0.16 available.
* You are trying to install
'mysql-workbench-community-8.0.16-1.fc30.x86_64.rpm' from the MySQL
website: https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/
  (which isn't guarantied to work, but in general, there shouldn't be an issue)
* Why is the Libreoffice uninstalled with MariaDB? Libreoffice has a
"BuildRequires: mariadb-connector-c-devel", so it probabbly depend on
that library from "mariadb-connector-c" package

Now, I tried to get F30 machine, install the workbench package, then
"dnf install mariadb-server" and everything went without any issue.
I did so on headless server, however I successfully started the
graphic APP via X11 forwarding over SSH.

It will show you a warning, that Oracle does not give a sh** about
MariaDB, so there may be compatibility issues, however the basic SQL
commands I tested went fine, as expected.
Speaking of compatibility, you may want to use 'community-mysql' for this tool.

I ran the `dnf remove "*mariadb*" `, then `dnf install
community-mysql-server` and `rm -rf /var/lib/mysql/*` before service
startup.
The 'mysql-workbench' tool worked just fine.

In the second transaction you did, you mixed up our Fedora packages -
the 'community-mysql' - with Oracle packages the 'mysql-community'.
They are expected to conflict since they provide nearly the same content.
I'd recomment to use the Fedora packages, since they are built with
the rest of the OS brought in mind.

So try to get just the package set you need. Get a clean package set -
decide if you want to use Fedora or Upstream packages and if you want
MariaDB or MySQL and don't mix them up.
Then there shouldn't be any conflicts or issues at all.
