The instructions on this page were used to create the //galera// package on the Ubuntu and Debian  Linux distributions. This package contains the wsrep provider for [[galera|MariaDB Galera Cluster]].

<<product mariadb-galera from=5.5.35>>
Starting with MariaDB Galera Cluster 5.5.35, the version of the wsrep provider is **25.3.5**. We also provide **25.2.9** for those that need or want it.

Prior to that, the wsrep version was 23.2.7.

#.1 Install prerequisites:
<<code indent=1 lang=bash inline=false>>
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get -y install check debhelper libasio-dev libboost-dev libboost-program-options-dev libssl-dev scons
<</code>>

#.2 Clone [[https://github.com/mariadb/galera|galera.git]] from [[https://github.com/mariadb|github.com/mariadb]] and checkout mariadb-3.x banch:
<<code indent=1 lang=bash inline=false>>
git init repo
cd repo
git clone -b mariadb-3.x https://github.com/MariaDB/galera.git
<</code>>

#.3 Build the packages by executing ##build.sh## under scripts/ directory with ##-p## switch:
<<code indent=1 lang=bash inline=false>>
cd galera

When finished, you will have the Debian packages for galera library and arbitrator in the parent directory.

== Running galera test suite

If you want to run the ##galera## test suite (##mysql-test-run --suite=galera##), you need to install the galera library as either ##/usr/lib/galera/libgalera_smm.so## or ##/usr/lib64/galera/libgalera_smm.so##
