**Release date:** 01 Jun 2010
For a list of every change made in this release, see the
[[mariadb-5147-changelog|changelog]].
In most respects [[MariaDB]] will work exactly as MySQL: all commands,
interfaces, libraries and APIs that exist in MySQL also exist in MariaDB.
In addition to the differences noted in previous
[[release-notes|release notes]] and [[changelogs]], the main
differences between MariaDB and MySQL are:
<<toc>>
== Includes MySQL 5.1.47
For MariaDB 5.1.47 we have merged in all of the upstream changes from MySQL
5.1.45, 5.1.46, and 5.1.47. The MySQL
[[http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/news-5-1-45.html|5.1.45]],
[[http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/news-5-1-46.html|5.1.46]], and
[[http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/news-5-1-47.html|5.1.47]] release notes
have details of what changes were made upstream by MySQL since 5.1.44.
== Includes [[xtradb-storage-engine|XtraDB]] 1.0.6-10
We have included XtraDB 1.0.6-10 in this version of MariaDB. The
[[http://www.percona.com/docs/wiki/percona-server:release_notes_51#release_106-10|XtraDB 1.0.6-10 release notes]]
page has details of the changes made to XtraDB since version 1.0.6-9 (the
version included since MariaDB 5.1.42).
== Includes [[pbxt-storage-engine|PBXT]] 1.0.11
We have included PBXT 1.0.11 in this version of MariaDB. The
[[http://www.primebase.org/download/ChangeLog|PBXT ChangeLog]] has a list of
all of the changes made since PBXT 1.0.09f (the version included in MariaDB
since 5.1.41).
Also included is the <<fixed>>xtstat<</fixed>> program. <<fixed>>xtstat<</fixed>> can be
used to monitor all internal activity of [[pbxt-storage-engine|PBXT]].
See <<fixed>>[[xtstat]]<</fixed>> for information on this utility.
== Windows build improvements
Several steps were taken during the development of MariaDB 5.1.47 to improve
our Windows builds. Steps included the creation of new Windows build slaves,
fixes for Windows compiler errors, and better Windows build automation. Windows
builds should now be included with every MariaDB release.
== Ubuntu Fixes
A few Ubuntu-specific fixes are included with MariaDB 5.1.47:
# A fix for a dependency problem with Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid packages.
# We now build against the full 10.04 release (we used to build against an
alpha version of Ubuntu 10.04).
# A fix for an Ubuntu issue that appeared when using libmyodbc with mariadb
packages.
== Improved Repositories
We've fixed some process issues with the Debian, Ubuntu, and CentOS
repositories provided by Open Query. These issues were delaying the latest
release from appearing in the repositories. Now releases should show up in the
repositories at around the same time a release shows up on the mirrors.
== Fewer warnings and bugs
In MariaDB 5.1.47 we've continued to fix bugs and compiler warnings, including
bugs in MySQL 5.1.47. The [[mariadb-5147-changelog|changelog]] has links to
several of the bugs that we have fixed.
== Test Suite improvements
We have also continued our work in improving the test suite.
