Description:

I am working on testing various labs releases from MySQL.

However, the only way I see that I can download these releases is by downloading some .tar.gz files that contain the packages, extract them and install them.

How to repeat:
n/a

Suggested fix:

It would be great if separate yum/apt repositories are created for each labs, so I can easily test these releases in my automation (puppet/ansible/...).

It would improve my workflow a lot

Examples:

- http://repo.mysql.com/yum/mysql-labs-group-replication/
- http://repo.mysql.com/yum/mysql-labs-innodb-cluster/
- http://repo.mysql.com/yum/mysql-labs-server-8/

While this is an entirely reasonable request for a useful enhancement, we are currently not planning to provide labs repos. Labs releases are usually rough around the edges and do often not lend themselves well to this kind of distribution.
