  Description     : MySQL 9.7 server, client, client library, router, and
testsuite

MySQL 9.7 is the latest LTS version of MySQL, and will be supported for the
next 8 years. It should be packaged for Debian to allow users to migrate from
the existing EOL mysql-8.0 package. This package will be made available in ONLY
unstable/experimental until Oracle is willing to provide individual security
fixes rather than just point release updates.

I will maintain this package within the Debian MariaDB/MySQL team.
