Dear Maintainer, when upgrading to latest stable release of mariadb-server, with apt-get upgrade, the installation failed, the server does not start again, and I find on syslog: mariadb-server-10.3.postinst[23690]: 2020-02-10 14:36:06 0 [ERROR] Aborting mariadb-server-10.3.postinst[23690]: Installation of system tables failed!

No error written in /var/log/mysql/error.log This is just that the upgrade script failed to complete. It crashed my 3 servers with MariaDB on it. After searching for a while (doing the 'apt-get upgrade' again and again, restoring my VMs snapshots each time), I found that removing the following line in my config before doing the upgrade resolved the issue: lc_messages = fr_FR This is the only way I managed to fix the error. I also tested the 'testing' version of the package, with the same error at the end.
