This completes the removal of all MySQL v5.7 support from the release. Percona XtraDB Cluster v8.0 still depends on percona-xtrabackup v2.4 _binaries_ and will fail if they are not present. These old binaries are required _just in case_ the cluster upgrades from a Percona XtraDB Cluster v5.7 version. However, pxc-release explicitly rejects upgrades from old MySQL v5.7 data directories (this transtion should be completed under pxc/1.1.x versions) so percona-xtrabackup is no longer required. Since the Percona XtraDB Cluster v8.0 wsrep_sst_xtrabackup-v2 script requires the pxb-2.4/bin path to exist, the existing binaries are stubbed with a simple bash script that echos an expected version when the "pxb-2.4/bin/xtrabackup --version" option is passed and fails loudly otherwise. Removing provides two benefits: - Mitigate CVE scans against EOL software - Enable compilation support on ubuntu-resolute stemcells without patching GPLv2 Percona XtraBackup v2.4 source.
