[Python-modules-team] Bug#848287: python-testing.mysqld: (build-)depends on mysql-{client, server}

[Dominik George]

Control: severity -1 important

Hi,

ok, that changes things.

It's very unfortunate that this was not really announced anywhere.

Still, lowering severity as this, per se, is not an RC bug. This package
depends on mysql-server, and this is reality, and there is nothing that
prevents it from doing so if it does for a good reason.

In the case that mysql-server is removed from testing, so will this
package, anyway.

I am trying to port it to mariadb, though.
