[debian-mysql] CGE packages

Hey guys,

I've got CGE packages built for CGE 6.3 (keep meaning to build them for
6.2 as well)

https://launchpad.net/~ndb-bindings/+archive

They're currently only built for Ubuntu because I don't have a sensible
place to upload source debs for debian for building/hosting. I've got a
packaging branch for debian already, though.

The real question is how to name/install this in the mainline. It's easy
enough for the way I've got it so far, you can just pick the APT repo
you want to add with either 6.2 or 6.3 or whatever. But that's not going
to work.

But we don't want to make CGE the default for all MySQL, I'm sure. And
it's not compatible with other branches, so we can't so much use SQL
node from non-CGE with data/mgm node from CGE.

Do you all think we should have mysql-cluster-server,
mysql-cluster-client packages that conflict with the others? Or perhaps
this is a good example use case for non-conflicting concurrent packages?

I dunno. Thoughts?

I'm also planning on making packages of a few other community branches,
like the one from percona, the one from Stewart Smith, etc... but I
don't think those need to go into the main archive. Unless someone
disagrees.

Monty
