Issue Tools for Ruby Gems/MySQL Database/CentOS7 Dependency Error

[Michael (UW Madison)]

PRODUCT plesk-installer
VERSION 17_0_17
OPERATING SYSTEM CentOS 7
ARCHITECTURE x86_64

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION
The Tools for Ruby gems component, gems-pre, requires mariadb-devel instead of the virtual package mysql-devel. This prevents the component from installing on a server that uses the supported MySQL Community Srever 5.7 package.
Per the "yum deplist plesk-gems-pre" command, the RPM is requiring maria-db.
This issue may appear on Red Hat 7/MySQL Community Server as well. A similar error was reported by a coworker, but I do not currently have access to that server to verify the issue is exactly the same.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Starting with a minimal CenOS7 install, add the MySQL Community Server repostitory.
Install mysql-community-server via yum.
Do a recommended install of Plesk.
Install the Tools for Ruby gems component, gems-pre, either via Add or Remove Components or the plesk-installer.

ACTUAL RESULT
Exception: Failed to solve dependencies:
plesk-gems-pre-0.0.1-centos7.16102516.x86_64 requires mariadb-devel

EXPECTED RESULT
Tools for Ruby gems component installed.
