Building MariaDB from a Source RPM
For some distributions you can build MariaDB from a source RPM. (See also Why Source RPMs (SRPMs) Aren't Packaged For Some Platforms).
You can build it as follows:
using dnf
On RHEL8 you might need to start with:
sudo dnf config-manager --set-enabled codeready-builder-beta-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms
Then, on all dnf distributions:
sudo dnf install rpm-build perl-generators dnf download --source MariaDB sudo dnf builddep MariaDB-*.src.rpm rpmbuild --rebuild MariaDB-*.src.rpm
using yum
sudo yum install rpm-build yum-utils yumdownloader --source MariaDB sudo yum-builddep MariaDB-*.src.rpm rpmbuild --rebuild MariaDB-*.src.rpm
using zypper
sudo zypper in rpm-build sudo zypper si MariaDB sudo rpmbuild -bb /usr/src/packages/SPECS/MariaDB.spec
Or (to avoid building as root):
sudo zypper in rpm-build sudo zypper si -d MariaDB zypper --pkg-cache-dir=`pwd` si --download-only MariaDB rpmbuild --rebuild mariadb/srpms/MariaDB-*.src.rpm
