[slurm-users] slurm-20.02.1-1 failed rpmbuild with error File not found

[Christian Anthon]

That makes sense. Though I would prefer that they made a choice for the 
db in the spec file. Just makes it easier for people who aren't experts 
in building packages. And slurmdbd will work with both mysql and mariadb 
regardless of what it was built against.

Thanks for the update,

Christian.
