This is a *very* frequently asked question on this list and there is
already a bunch of bugzilla reports.

Fedora has refused to ship any update since MySQL AB has changed their
license to be either GPL with a FOSS exception for PHP and the like or
commercial. This seems to be a personal issue for the Fedora steering
committee and I hope they will see the light once this causes a fork.

Experience is what you get when you expected something else.
