I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of versions 5.5 and 5.6 of the MySQL on CentOS Linux 6 x86_64, delivered via a Software Collection (SCL) built by the SCLo Special Interest Group (https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/SCLo).
QuickStart
You can get started in three easy steps (example of MySQL 5.6): $ sudo yum install centos-release-scl $ sudo yum install rh-mysql56 $ scl enable rh-mysql56 bash
should centos-release-scl not have at least a "Obsoletes: centos-release-SCL" statement?

And a "Provides: centos-release-SCL", for people like me with "mock" configurations that used it.

honza can shed a bit more light on this, but it was discussed before the first SCL release - and it appeared to not be needed, as new users would just migrate over.

We discussed this topic, but haven't closed it IIRC. New users won't need it, correct. But I remember we said the old users would probably expect centos-release-SCL will be replaced by centos-release-scl automatically. So, it still seems something we should change.
This couldn't be done before the first release, because all the collections weren't released at that point. Now, I believe we can add the Provides/Obsoletes bits into centos-release-SCL. Let's discuss this on the meeting tomorrow.

Please, yes, do provide "Obsoletes:" as well as "Provides:". I've got "mock" configurations in github repositories that other people use, and they may not update their configs for some time.
