Dear Paul,

In Ubuntu, I've adjusted the autopkgtest for cacti to test against
default-mysql-server instead of mariadb-server.  The reason for this is that
mariadb-server is not the default implementation of mysql-server in Ubuntu,
and mariadb-server was recently buggy on arm64 so not only was it useful to
run the autopkgtest against the mysql-server that we use, it was also useful
to not block against mariadb-server.  Similarly, since you recently dropped
the autopkgtest to test against mysql-server in Debian due to it being
absent from testing, I think it makes sense to only test against the default
mysql implementation in Debian.

Please consider the attached patch for inclusion in Debian.
