New mariadb packages are available for Slackware 14.1 and -current to fix security issues.

MariaDB was updated to its current minor version, fixing bugs and security issues.

These updates include a fix for Logjam (CVE-2015-4000), making MariaDB work with client software that no longer allows short DH groups over SSL, as e.g. our current openssl packages.

On openSUSE 13.1, MariaDB was updated to 5.5.44.

On openSUSE 13.2, MariaDB was updated from 10.0.13 to 10.0.20.
