MR opened https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-server/-/merge_requests/51
about the test. I have not yet have time to figure out the best way to
avoid this.

If other people run into this issue, please tell about it by commenting here.

For the time being the manual workaround is to run:

```
cp -a /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/provider_lz4.cnf.dpkg-new
/etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/provider_lz4.cnf
apt install mariadb-plugin-provider-lz4
```
