Re: latest mariadb-connector-c 3.4.9 breaks mythtv

Hi Michal,

Looking at the fedora 44 status at
	https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/?packages=mariadb-connector-c
I see this connector was not un-pushed and no new replacement was provided.
Doing 'dnf update' (after I downgraded) the bad version is still offered.

Seeing the severity of the problem (I am not the only one encountering it) should it still be offered?

Regards,
	Eyal
