Re-activate testing on MySQL and MariaDB 5.5

Open adamchainz opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

In #388 testing on these databases was removed because I couldn't figure out how to force install them - apt refuses to by default as there are packages providing MySQL 5.6 in the Ubuntu default repos. There are some hints in the MariaDB docs on how to work around this - I tried pinning the repo but it didn't seem to work: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/installing-mariadb-deb-files/#installation-issues

N.B. Django 2.0 doesn't support MySQL 5.5 any more, so it's tempting not to do this.
