I've attempted to split the package at
https://salsa.debian.org/olafvdspek-guest/mariadb-10.3/commit/55d06886f5a81c10a00822078aac3ea0090c1b7f
but when building there's an error it can't find mytop..
Also, would it be better if mytop was in it's own source package and repo?
Building takes a while too, is there a way to do the packaging without
rebuilding the entire server every time?

Greetings,
