Listmates,

        A bit unexpected, after my last zypper up -t package, I notice that 
'mysql' has
been removed, but I notice that all the mysql dependent libs are still in place:

[07:44 zephyr/home/david] # mysql
Welcome to the MariaDB monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MariaDB connection id is 3
Server version: 5.1.44-MariaDB-log SUSE MariaDB RPM

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement.

MariaDB [(none)]> use mysql;
Database changed
MariaDB [mysql]> select user,host,password from user;
<snip - table is still there>

        What in the heck is 'MariaDB' and why did it replace mysql?? What 
difference
does it make to me? I'm sure Maria is a sweet girl, but I was always partial to
mysql -- What gives?
