Dear all,

I would like to integrate MariaDB Galera Cluster
(https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/what-is-mariadb-galera-cluster/)
into Buildroot. Before I prepare and submit patches I would like to
ask a few questions about how to do things properly: MariaDB conflicts
with MySQL (they install the same files). Should I:

 a) Create a meta-package, for example "mysql compatible DB", the
selection of which would let the user choose between MariaDB Galera
Cluster or MySQL?

 b) Integrate MariaDB Galera Cluster into MySQL package and let the
user choose which implementation he wants?

 c) Make these packages mutually exclusive using "depends on !"?


Cheers,

Sylvain
