[Koha-devel] DBD::mysql unmaintained

Hi all,

 

Daniël van Eeden, the person who releases DBD::mysql on CPAN and has push
privileges to https://github.com/perl5-dbi/DBD-mysql, has said that he is no
longer maintaining DBD::mysql.

 

That explains why Ubuntu’s package seems to just be stacking up patches on
top of the last release from 2019. (I’m glad I don’t use DBD::mysql from
CPAN. I do use DBD::Pg from CPAN but it’s much better maintained.)

 

Anyway, I’m asking for more information about the future of DBD::mysql, and
thought I’d keep you all informed.
