[debian-mysql] Request for contributions to mariadb-10.6 in Debian

Hello!

It would be great to have some help with the MariaDB packaging in Debian!

Thanks to efforts done in DebConf and in general this spring/summer,
Debian has new software in unstable that MariaDB could benefit from.

For example Lintian has a new version with a lot of new tests (see
changelog https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/l/lintian/changelog-2.115.2)
that can be used to detect and fix small quality issues in the MariaDB
packaging.

If you want to help out with MariaDB packaging in Debian, I promise to
quickly review any incoming Merge Requests on Salsa.

Ideas on what to work on can be found from Debian QA systems and bug
reports at https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/mariadb-10.6

If you don't write packaging code, it is also helpful if people can
contribute by triaging bugs and enriching bug reports.

- Otto
