hi

how is it planned to handle that mysql.spec is now different product 
(mysql vs percona)
and all those mariadb and percona-server packages.

mysql 5.6 -> 5.7 MAY NOT be upgraded automatically. if someone used 
features from percona-server 5.6 that are now not present in 
mysql-community version in mysql.spec 5.7 their systems would be BROKEN.

some idea: rename mysql.spec to mysql-community.spec ?

should we introduce mysql57, mysql80 packages instead?

ps: fedora has their mysql named as community-mysql.spec
