What happened to databases/percona?

[Mayhem30]

I was hoping to migrate from MySQL to Percona, but I no longer see in the ports system.

Why was it removed?

databases/percona57-server went EOL on 10-1
No support for SSL 3.0.0. Old version with no plans to backport.

- Fails to build with OpenSSL 3.0.0 and later with
error: duplicate symbol: ossl_sa_ and as MySQL 5.7 did not get any
updates for OpenSSL 3.0.0 and later it is highly unlikely that Percona
will also get one.
- mark DEPRECATED as upstream will reach EOL on 2023-10-01

You could port the newer version:

https://downloads.percona.com/downloads/percona-distribution-mysql-ps/percona-distribution-mysql-ps-8.0.34/source/debian/percona-server_8.0.34-26.orig.tar.gz

That is beyond my expertise. I 'm surprised to see that the port maintainer for 5.7 never put 8.0 on ports though.

 

[Phishfry]

Contact fluffy@ maybe they will answer question why no 8.0 branch. Maybe needs help or some license restriction.

 

[Mayhem30]

Will do, thanks.

There is mongodb & mariadb ?

It would be nice if Percona 8 would be ported to FreeBSD, but at this point, I've changed my DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=mysql=10.11m. Hoping fluffy@ will shed some light on version 8...

 

[Mayhem30]

I emailed Fluffy yesterday, but haven't heard anything back yet.

Now that SSL is no longer an issue, is anyone up to creating a port of Percona?

Going try on weeckend to compile Percona 5.7 to update MySQL 5.6 data-files for MySQL/Percona 8.*

Note: showed Percona 57 port 'is deleted'

But can be downloaded

Then compiled and installed. In contrast of MySQL 57 wich still is possible to download via 'deleted port' but impossible to compile on BSD 13.5 .
