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