Ignoring EPEL for now if there are multiple mysqls arround then encouraging
Fedora to adapt the mysql to support alternatives has to be the long
term solution.

Note  I have never ever looked at MariaDB or Percona.  Do they really
use the same deamon names, library names, etc,....?

Is MySQL to Percona MySQL to MariaDB
the same as
sendmail to exim to postgres?
