Bug#913362: netbeans: please switch to libmariadb-java

[Markus Koschany]

Package: libnb-ide14-java
Version: 8.1+dfsg3-5
Severity: important

Hello,

we would like to remove libmysql-java from Debian because it is
frequently affected by security vulnerabilities which are not fully
disclosed. This makes it hard to determine the impact of such a flaw.[1]
However we also have libmariadb-java which is a drop-in replacement
and upstream is more transparent about security issues.
