Is it possible to change the information in mysql version output?

Question

linux

The question, so to speak, is only for the sake of sporting interest.
Is it possible from this:

[email protected]: mysql --version
mysql  Ver 15.1 Distrib 5.5.68-MariaDB, for Linux (x86_64) using readline 5.1

do this:

[email protected]: mysql --version
mysql  Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.1.44-MariaDB, for Linux (x86_64) using readline 5.1

?

Answer 1

For the sake of sport, rename `which mysql` and write a script called mysql that will give you what you need with the --version argument, and pass the rest of the options to the renamed real mysql

Answer 2

Find where a string is pulled from

Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.1.44-MariaDB, for Linux (x86_64) using readline 5.1

, replace/change if possible via text editor (?)

Answer 3

Download the sources and compile with your data.

Answer 4

You need to start by answering the question of whether there are root rights.
