[debian-mysql] Bug#810968: mariadb-server-10.0: Logrotate exists 1 if a non-debian mysqld is running (e.g. containerized mysqld)

[Lennart Weller]

Package: mariadb-server-10.0
Version: 10.0.22-0+deb8u1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

The current logrotate script only checks if there is a mysqld process running
which it can't connect to. If this is the case the postrotate script exists with
1 causing a mail to be send.

I attached a patch which would remedy this situation by checking if the running
mysqld process is actually the one we are working with in the logrotate.
