This _may_ be considered a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-5.7/+bug/1490071 The root cause may be a little different, but it's essentially the same thing - packaging doesn't currently support swapping from MariaDB to MySQL - but neither do the upstreams. We have discussed how this might be worked around in packaging, but it is non-trivial to implement and has never been prioritised. I don't think server-next is warranted here. It's something that affects people experimenting and doesn't affect servers in production. Nor is MariaDB in main.
