  • Does a default mysql/mariadb mapping exist?

    Hi,
    I am preferring mariadb over mysql, thus I do have to tell all relevant ports to depend on a given mariadb version like (make.conf):
    # MYSQL/MARIADB mappings
    #
    # Possible values see: https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/Mk/bsd.default-versions.mk
    # 8.0, 8.4, 9.1, 9.4 MSQL
    # 10.6m, 10.11m, 11.4m, 11.8m MARIADB
    #
    DEFAULT_VERSIONS+= mysql=11.8m
    But: Is there a way to define something like "use whatever mariadb version is considered default w.r.t the current default mysql version"?
    Thanks and regards,
    Michael

    This is being worked on in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D43946
