[Koha-bugs] [Bug 18336] Use utf8mb4 instead of utf8 for MySQL tables, columns, and connections

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18336 --- Comment #71 from Victor Grousset/tuxayo <victor.grousset@biblibre.com> --- (In reply to Victor Grousset/tuxayo from comment #69)

So, isn't there a loss of data on VARCHAR ? I didn't see VARCHAR being converted to something else.

Nothing to worry about it seems. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/charset-unicode-conversion.html

Because utf8 cannot store the character at all, utf8 columns have no supplementary characters and you need not worry about converting characters or losing data when converting to utf8mb4.
