Changes:
   http://mroonga.org/docs/news.html#release-6.02

There are three topics in this release.

  * End of support for Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 (Wheezy)
  * Supported Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)
  * Fix compilation error with MySQL 5.7

## End of support for Debian GNU/Linux 7.0 (Wheezy)

In this release, we decided to stop support for Debian GNU/Linux 7.0
(Wheezy).

Because Wheezy has been reached EOL in April 26th, 2016.  Although
Wheezy is still supported as LTS until May 2018, we stop to provide
Mroonga package for Wheezy.

We provide Mroonga package for Debian Jessie (8.0), so we recommend to
migrate your Wheezy environment to Jessie.

## Supported Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)

>From this release, we start to provide Mroonga package for Ubuntu
16.04 (Xenial Xerus) in PPA on Launchpad.

For more information about how to install, please refer to the
following document:

  * How to install on Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus)
    http://mroonga.org/en/docs/install/ubuntu.html

## Fix compilation error with MySQL 5.7

If you use our provided Mroonga package as-is, it does not encounter
this issue. But, previous version, which has been released last month,
contains a problem that causes compilation error with MySQL 5.7 when
building from source.

In this release, this issue is now fixed.
