UndefVarError: `execute` not defined

Recently, MySQL.transaction(conn) do is not working anymore for me. I am not sure if this is related to DBInterface.jl or MySQL.jl

If I explicitly qualify execute as DBInterface.execute(conn, "START TRANSACTION") in the function definition of transaction things work just fine.

including @quinnj as there were recent changes to transaction

here is an MWE

dbc = (username="admin",db="fortuna",hostname="mill-zur-fs2",pw="some_password")

dr = tempdir()
using Pkg
Pkg.activate(dr)
Pkg.add("MySQL")

using MySQL

conn = MySQL.DBInterface.connect(MySQL.Connection, dbc.hostname, dbc.username,dbc.pw,db=dbc.db)
#dftest001 = DBInterface.execute(conn, "SELECT * FROM testtable limit 3") |> DataFrame

txt = """CREATE TABLE test001 (
  `ab` VARCHAR(45) NULL,
  `cd` INT NULL);
  """

dftest001 = DBInterface.execute(conn, txt) |> DataFrame

MySQL.transaction(conn) do
    rs = """INSERT INTO test001 (ab, cd) VALUES ('ab',1),('axxb',11);""" 
    DBInterface.execute(conn,rs);
end
