Hello,

A new question has been asked in "MariaDB community" by theone:
--------------------------------
I need to script the install of MariaDB using the rpm command in CentOS 6.4. I can't use yum since it's gong to be an offline install so there's no live access to the repository.

The only MySQL package installed is mysql-libs as various other packages depend on it. When I did a test install of MariaDB with yum using the command:

yum install MariaDB-client MariaDB-common MariaDB-compat MariaDB-devel MariaDB-server MariaDB-shared

It correctly accounted for mysql-libs and uninstalled it at the end as MariaDB could handle the dependencies after it was installed:

Transaction Summary


My question is, what is the equivalent way to install the MariaDB packages using the rpm command only as opposed to yum?


If I do rpm -ivh MariaDB*.rpm, I will get a ton of messages like the following about conflicts with mysql-libs:

	file /etc/my.cnf from install of MariaDB-common-5.5.32-1.x86_64 conflicts with file from package mysql-libs-5.1.66-2.el6_3.x86_64
	file /usr/share/mysql/charsets/Index.xml from install of MariaDB-common-5.5.32-1.x86_64 conflicts with file from package mysql-libs-5.1.66-2.el6_3.x86_64

I used the --force option to install and then uninstalled mysql-libs and didn't get any weird messages but I'm not sure that is the cleanest method to handle the conflicts. 

So can someone confirm that installing MariaDB with the following rpm commands would be the same as using yum to install the packages and handle mysql-libs conflicts/removal:

rpm -ivh --force MariaDB*.rpm

rpm -e mysql-libs


Thanks for any input!
