Hi Sergei,
Appreciate you considering other options. Unfortunately in this case
it seems Percona did not release a new 5.6 version in time for this
10.1.25 merge.
However, interestingly, they did tag a release for 5.7.18-15 in the
PerconaFT repository (which is common to both 5.6 and 5.7) in late
May, that did include the fix I wanted :)
Percona tells me that they will only be doing a 5.6 release once
Oracle releases 5.6.37, which could be quite some time (plus the time
for Percona to do their thing).
Is there potentially a way to deal with this, e.g. accept any tagged
release from PerconaFT (be it 5.6 or 5.7 .. but perhaps use a
different versioning indicator for consistency)
Yes. Technically, we can merge TokuDB from 5.7 into 10.2.
May be we start doing it later, after a first few GA releases of 10.2
