[Piuparts-devel] Bug#988704: piuparts.debian.org: scripts/pre_install_database-server fails to start MariaDB/MySQL

[Guilhem Moulin]

Package: piuparts.debian.org
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I believe https://piuparts.debian.org/sid2experimental/fail/roundcube-core_1.5~beta+dfsg.1-3.log
is a false positive: scripts/pre_install_database-server installs default-mysql-server
but fails to start it:

Changing /usr/sbin/policy-rc.d is probably not an option, but maybe scripts/pre_install_database-server
could manually start the service after installation?

Many thanks for maintaining piuparts.d.o!
Cheers
