Hi guix! This patch splits mariadb into three parts: out (150 MB), lib (38 MB) and dev (5 MB). This means that dependents now have a lighter closure. For instance, python-mysqlclient lost its references to gcc, perl, jemalloc and one zlib reference. It went from 537.2 MiB to only 230.4 MiB. qtbase went from ~1.3 GB to ~1.0 GB. I've rebuilt most of these direct dependents without issues, so I don't expect any issue with this patch. However, since qtbase is in the dependency graph, there are ~500 packages that need to be rebuilt, so this patch qualifies for staging.
