The best I have is upstream saying it depends on mariadb not mysql[1] since version 2.5. I really don’t have time or knowledge to dig in to why this is the case, until this came around it was my understanding that they were compatible and I’ve followed upstream’s precedent in the Debian package. > >> Do affected users need to supply logs of the application failing to >> start on firstrun or similar? > > No. That's a given.

This has already been mirrored in the next release - granted, I’ve not checked if your mirror will automatically check If the preference in Ubuntu is to keep using mysql with this package, someone’s going to need to revert the change in the package that’s been mirrored for to not only depend on mysql and investigate why it’s not working or work with upstream to understand why they’re choosing to depend on mariadb instead.
