[debian-mysql] Bug#917075: Bug#917075: mariadb-10.3: libmariadb3 causes removal of default-libmysqlclient-dev

[Otto Kekäläinen]

.
 Severity: normal

I am unable to reproduce this issue. Installing all of the mentioned
packages works just fine.

# dpkg -l | grep -iE 'maria|mysql|galera'
ii  default-libmysqlclient-dev:amd64  1.0.4                amd64
 MySQL database development files (metapackage)
ii  libmariadb-dev:amd64              1:10.3.11-1          amd64
 MariaDB database development files
ii  libmariadb3:amd64                 1:10.3.11-1          amd64
 MariaDB database client library
ii  libmariadbclient-dev-compat:amd64 1:10.1.37-3          amd64
 MariaDB database development files (libmysqlclient compatibility)
ii  mariadb-common                    1:10.3.11-1          all
 MariaDB common metapackage
ii  mysql-common                      5.8+1.0.4            all
 MySQL database common files, e.g. /etc/mysql/my.cnf

Please provide exact steps on how to reproduce this, preferably
something I can copy-paste into a clean sid Docker image and see the
result myself.

Currently default-libmysqlclient-dev depends on
libmariadbclient-dev-compat which is provided by
libmariadb-dev-compat.
Everything should be just fine.
