Cannot install percona-xtrabackup-24 with PXC 5.6.35 due to package dependency

[Jaime Sicam]

rpm -qpR Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-server-56-5.6.35-26.20.2.el6.x86_64.rpm |grep xtrabackup
warning: Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-server-56-5.6.35-26.20.2.el6.x86_64.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID cd2efd2a: NOKEY
percona-xtrabackup >= 2.2.5

So, Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-server-56-5.6.35-26.20.2 requires Xtrabackup 2.2.5 and above.

However, if you try to install Xtrabackup 2.4 with PXC you get a dependency error:
yum localinstall Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-client-56-5.6.35-26.20.2.el6.x86_64.rpm Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-galera-3-3.20-2.el6.x86_64.rpm Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-server-56-5.6.35-26.20.2.el6.x86_64.rpm Percona-XtraDB-Cluster-shared-56-5.6.35-26.20.2.el6.x86_64.rpm percona-xtrabackup-24-2.4.7-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

Fix in PXB https://github.com/percona/percona-xtrabackup/pull/416, https://github.com/percona/percona-xtrabackup/pull/418

[Sergei Glushchenko (sergei.glushchenko)]

The bug fix was reconsidered:

    - PXC-5.6 is XB-2.3 compatible only.
    - PXC-5.7 is XB-2.4 compatible only.

It needs to be documented.
