Is there a ppa or other repo providing ubuntu-style packages of mariadb 10.4 for ubuntu 16.04?

I'm trying to easily get some vms upgraded from mariadb-10.0 (server and client).

  • Did you follow instructions given in mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-package-repository-setup-and-usage ?

  • @dariofac I believe those mariadb packages don't have the debian/ubuntu customizations that the existing xenial mariadb-10.0 packages I'm using have, and would be more work to configure and install. I will fall back to those, but was hoping for something more seamless first

  • @dariofac ah, that's different than what I initially tried (mariadb.org/download "Respository Configuration tool") and seems to be working. thanks

MariaDB provides a package repository which includes packages for Ubuntu Xenial, as stated here.

To add the repository, open a terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T) and execute:

curl -LsS https://downloads.mariadb.com/MariaDB/mariadb_repo_setup | sudo bash -s -- --mariadb-server-version mariadb-10.4

The script requires curl, ca-certificates and apt-transport-https (which can be installed by executing sudo apt install <package> replacing <package> with the actual package name).
