Yes, we do see shared-compat for 5.5.34:

http://www.percona.com/downloads/Percona-Server-5.5/Percona-Server-5.5.34-rel32.0/RPM/rhel6/x86_64/

and in 5.5.35:

http://www.percona.com/downloads/Percona-Server-5.5/Percona-Server-5.5.35-rel33.0/RPM/rhel6/x86_64/

but not after that:

http://www.percona.com/downloads/Percona-Server-5.5/Percona-Server-5.5.36-34.1/binary/redhat/6/x86_64/

Also, for my CentOS after recent yum update:

[root@centos openxs]# rpm -qa | grep -i Percona

shared-compat packages were removed on purpose with the libmysqlclient -> libperconaserverclient rename. Assigning to Alexey to decide how to proceed.

[monty solomon (monty+launchpad)]

Any update?

[Valerii Kravchuk (valerii-kravchuk)]

I think "Incomplete" status was wrong. We verified there are no packages, and we know the original reason for them to disappear. But this may end up either as "Invalid" if we do not plan to fix anything (in this case I'd expect some clear note about this in the manual, release notes etc), or with some fix. Restoring "Confirmed" status for now.

[monty solomon (monty+launchpad)]

The Percona-Server-shared-compat package was removed from the repo.

This change has broken my puppet environment.

Percona-Server-5.5.34-rel32.0 and Percona-Server-5.5.35-rel33.0 are not available.

[monty solomon (monty+launchpad)]

See bugs 1199534 and 1382100 for other packages that need the compat package and libmysqlclient.so.16

libmysqlclient.so.18 is needed for bugs 1291249 and 1331402

[monty solomon (monty+launchpad)]

I see there is a Percona-Server-shared-compat-57-5.7.11-4.1.el7.x86_64.rpm available for RHEL 7 that contains

    libmysqlclient.so.18.1.0
    libmysqlclient_r.so.18.1.0

Please add

    libmysqlclient.so.16
    libmysqlclient_r.so.16
    libmysqlclient.so.16.0.0
    libmysqlclient_r.so.16.0.0
    libmysqlclient.so.18
    libmysqlclient_r.so.18

to the package and make it available for 5.6 and 5.7 on RHEL 6.

Thanks.

Upstream made changes to the RPM scripts/configuration in 5.7.14 to facilitate the install of multiple client library versions. Please include the changes in your release of 5.7.14.
