Discontinued builds

The MariaDB project tries to support as many different Operating Systems and Linux Distributions as we can. However, when a distribution or OS stops receiving security and other updates it becomes difficult to freely provide packages for that platform. In such cases, our policy is to deprecate that platform and stop providing binary packages for it.

Accordingly, this will be the final release of for the following distributions:

• Ubuntu 8.04 LTS "Hardy"

• Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric"

Binary tar.gz files built on Ubuntu "Hardy" will also be going away. These are the ones that do not require GLIBC_2.14+. So for the next release, all binary tar.gz files for Linux will require GLIBC_2.14+.

If your chosen Linux Distribution or Operating System is deprecated, packages or support are not completely unavailable. Companies such as , , and others provide support for all versions of MariaDB back to even very old MySQL versions. This includes packaged binaries. Contact them for more details.

More information on the deprecation policy can be found on the page.

Thanks, and enjoy MariaDB!
