The latest packages
Tarballs, binaries (Linux, Solaris, and Windows), and packages for some Linux distributions are available on downloads.askmonty.org.
We hope that interested community package maintainers will step forward to build packages for their distributions. We ask for strict adherence to your packaging system's best practices and invite your feedback if our project impedes this in any way.
Instructions how to install the packages can be found here.
Distributions Which Include MariaDB
Getting the source
You can find all the source code in our Launchpad repository.
To check code out and in, the bzr (Bazaar) version control software offers the path of least resistance. If you are unfamiliar with bzr, please refer to the bzr documentation for an understanding of version control with bzr.
For instructions on creating your own local branch of MariaDB, see the Getting the MariaDB Source Code page.
See the Generic Build Instructions page for general instructions on compiling MariaDB from the source. The source page has links to platform and distribution-specific information, including information on how we build the release packages.
