Bug Description
The information in http://
Taking CentOS 5 as an example, a .repo file would look something like this:
<quote>
[ourdelta]
name=Ourdelta MariaDB
baseurl=http://
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
</quote>
The trick is in the baseurl. There's currently a few options:
http://
http://
These seem to have ourdelta mysql 5.0.87 in them (fine, but would be nice if the correct .repo file was available without having to figure it out manually)
http://
This is a repo that has just the mysql repo and gpg keys in it. When you install that repo though, there are no packages in it that can be installed. Seems outdated.

These seem to have two versions of MariaDB in them:
* MariaDB-
* MariaDB-
There's 2 main problems here:
1) The newest version of MariaDB is 5.1.50 according to http://
2) When you try to install the 5.1.42 version, it tells you that the 5.1.39 version is newer and will be used instead. 5.1.39 was a beta though (http://

Package MariaDB-client is obsoleted by MariaDB-
</quote>
That pretty much leaves me with no viable yum-controlled option for MySQL/MariaDB 5.1
Then, there is also no rpms for MariaDB 5.2.2, which are in gamma right now.
Additionally, there need to be repodata/repomd.xml files for each architecture.
