+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; ah, didn't see that one... i've put the mklibnames in variables and
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; resubmitted.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; perhaps this can be documented somewhere(.spec file policy), or even
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; better, fixed?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> %mklibname takes a lot of parameters, so:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Requires: %mklibname mysql %{major} = %{version}-%{release}
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> will let %mklibname think its parameters are:
+</I>&gt;<i> %1: mysql
+</I>&gt;<i> %2: %{major}
+</I>&gt;<i> %3: =
+</I>&gt;<i> %4: %{version}-%{release}
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> After parsing, %mklibname only recognize the first three paramerters,
+</I>&gt;<i> and put an underscore between %2 and %3. so it becomes:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> %{_lib}mysql%{major}_=
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> And, %4(%{version}-%{release}) will be throw away.
+</I>
+right, i figured it out, after i saw it. thanks for the lengthy explanation.
+Speaking with Anssi about this, he mentions that
+
+%{mklibname mysql %{major}} = %{version}-%{release}
+
+would have also solved the issue.
+
+&gt;<i> &gt; PS: I provided the exact provides as mysql, just to be sure that there is
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; no mageia (or otherwise 3rd party package) could be having troubles
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; finding the correct packages.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> As mariadb is a binary replacement for mysql, why not just named the
+</I>&gt;<i> libs as %{_lib}mysql18 and %{_lib}mysqld18, which is more accurate
+</I>&gt;<i> than %{_lib}mariadb18. Almost all the packages are using binary
+</I>&gt;<i> dependencies (libmysqlclient.so.18) rather than rpm name dependencies,
+</I>&gt;<i> which is more nature than package name, and more reliable.
+</I>
+i understand, however the %mklibname macro is actually meant for this, and
+will not change.
+
+furthermore, speaking with Anssi about this,
+
+&gt;<i> Personally, I don't think libmysqld18 (now it is named
+</I>&gt;<i> libmariadb-embedded18) should have any relationship with libmysqld0.
+</I>&gt;<i> They have different libmajor, which means all the packages depending
+</I>&gt;<i> on libmysqld0 should be recompiled. So basically, they are different
+</I>&gt;<i> libs actually. Adding symbolic link won't provide any help, either.
+</I>
+in respect to the embedded libraries, it's not actually,
+
+their upstream version was more or less copied from mysql and the developer
+who implemented the cmake change in 5.5 branch for mysql, is the same person
+who's now maintaining that 5.5 cmake branch.
+
+I mentioned that this library should be versioned, and that it's not at this
+time, he agreed, and said that since it's ABI compatible with mysqlclient,
+that he should not use 0 major, but the 18 major (same as mysqlclient)
+
+the code is still 100% exactly the same, it just went from unversioned in
+upstream to versioned.
+
+since we had versioned manually mysqld to major 0, i provided the
+compatibility symlinks for it.
