The zypper dup has installed MariaDB; now I need to figure out which dependency did this, as I’m not happy with the update message:
Message from package mariadb: You just installed MySQL server for the first time. You can start it using: rcmysql start During first start empty database will be created for your automatically. PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MariaDB root USER ! To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands: '/usr/bin/mysqladmin' -u root password 'new-password' '/usr/bin/mysqladmin' -u root -h misibook password 'new-password' Alternatively you can run: '/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation' which will also give you the option of removing the test databases and anonymous user created by default. This is strongly recommended for production servers.
