Percona monthly bug Report June 2020

Percona monthly bug Report June 2020At Percona, we operate on the premise that full-transparency makes a product better. We strive to build not only the best open-source database products but also to help you manage any issues that arise in any of the databases that we support. And, in true open-source form, report back on any issues or bugs you might encounter along the way.

We constantly update our bug reports and monitor other boards to ensure we have the latest information, but we wanted to make it a little easier for you to keep track of the most critical ones. This monthly post is a central place to get information on the most noteworthy open and recently resolved bugs.

In the June 2020 edition of our monthly bug report, we have the following list of bugs:
