[debian-mysql] Bug#990708: mariadb-server-10.5: upgrade problems due to galera-3 -> galera-4 switch

[Andreas Beckmann]

Package: mariadb-server-10.5
Version: 1:10.5.10-2
Severity: serious

Hi Otto,

during piuparts buster -> bullseye upgrade tests I'm sometimes running
into problems w.r.t. mariadb-server and galera-3/4: apt prefers to keep
default-mysql-server (and its rdepends) from buster installed instead of
upgrading them to bullseye.

Why is there still a galera-3 package in bullseye? I don't see any
rdepends. (If that can be removed from bullseye, it might make apt's job
easier switching from galera-3 to galera-4 along mariadb 10.3 to 10.5)
