Re: [debian-mysql] Backporting MySQL?
Hi, Dominic,
As noted in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=841049 the
Oracle critical patch update for October will list CVE's that affect
MySQL 5.6 prior to 5.6.34.
We mention in the changelog at
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql/5.6/en/news-5-6-34.html that
there is an incompatible change, which will require some packaging
changes. The update changes the server to only allow import/export
operations in /var/lib/mysql-files (as the default setting), so the
packaging will need to create this directory.
We can provide a packaging patch for jessie-backports once the CVE list
is available, so you can upload, if that's ok with you?
