Installing and Upgrading MariaDB
This file contains chapter two of the MySQL manual and describes how
to obtain and install MySQL. The instructions below are generally
applicable to both MySQL and MariaDB, but differ in some particulars
(like, for example, the GPG signing key we use is different).
Detailed, MariaDB-specific instructions are available at:

IMPORTANT:
If you have been using the Maria storage engine with
MySQL-5.1-Maria-alpha build and upgrading to a newer MariaDB you MUST
run maria_chk --recover on all your Maria tables. This is because we
made an incompatible change of how transaction id is stored and old
transaction id's must be reset!
If you have been using the Maria (now Aria) storage engine with the
MySQL-5.1-Maria-alpha build and are upgrading to a newer MariaDB you
MUST run [m]aria_chk --recover on all your Aria tables. This is because
we made an incompatible change with how the transaction id is stored
and old transaction id's must be reset!
cd mysql-data-directory
maria_chk --recover */*.MAI
aria_chk --recover */*.MAI
As the Maria storage engine is now in beta we will do our best to not
introduce any incompatible changes in the data format for the Maria
tables; If this would be ever be needed, we will, if possible, support
both the old and the new version to make upgrades as easy as possible.
Going forward, we will do our best to not introduce any incompatible
changes in the data format for Aria tables. If this would be ever be
needed, we will, if possible, support both the old and the new version
to make upgrades as easy as possible.
Note that for the MariaDB 5.1 release the Maria storage engine is
classified as 'beta'; It should work, but use it with caution. Please
report all bugs to https://bugs.launchpad.net/maria so that we can fix
them!
