    2. Sever install & crash. Note this is as a demonstration: do not action this on a production server!

      sudo yum install -y Percona-Server-client-56 Percona-Server-server-56
      sudo service mysql start

  2. Gimme Stacks!

    1. Debug info packages (can be executed on a production system, but do match your 5.5, 5.6 or 5.7 version correctly)
      sudo yum install -y Percona-Server-56-debuginfo
