[Bug 644587] Re: Please remove drizzle from maverick (was: fails to build from source on maverick)

** Summary changed:

- fails to build from source on maverick
+ Please remove drizzle from maverick (was: fails to build from source on maverick)

** Description changed:

  The current version of drizzle in maverick is failing unit tests on
  32-bit architectures, and is very old. Suggest updating to the latest
  upstream as significant changes and improvements have been made.
+ 
+ == REMOVAL ==
+ 
+ The version of drizzle that is in maverick now is an alpha version. We
+ have looked at importing the latest drizzle version, but it would still
+ be a pre-release, alpha version. As such, after discussing with the
+ drizzle development team, its been decided that it is better to not have
+ a potentially incompatible version of drizzle in the archive, and direct
+ users toward the project's official PPA.
+ 
+ Please remove the source package 'drizzle', from maverick, which builds
+ these binaries:
+ 
+ drizzle-client
+ drizzle-server
+ drizzle-plugin-dev
+ 
+ None of these have any reverse dependencies.

== REMOVAL ==

The version of drizzle that is in maverick now is an alpha version. We have looked at importing the latest drizzle version, but it would still be a pre-release, alpha version. As such, after discussing with the drizzle development team, its been decided that it is better to not have a potentially incompatible version of drizzle in the archive, and direct users toward the project's official PPA.

Please remove the source package 'drizzle', from maverick, and these binaries which it builds:

drizzle-client
drizzle-server
drizzle-plugin-dev

None of these have any reverse dependencies.
