[debian-mysql] Bug#1065275: mariadb: missing dpkg-dev (>= 1.22.5) build dependency for time_t transition

[Otto Kekäläinen]

Since this is now the first time I noticed that new time_t should be
available for testing and I started testing, I noticed that MariaDB
has built-in check to prevent it from running on 2038 at all:

# date
Thu Mar  3 05:55:28 UTC 2039

# ./sql/mariadbd --version
2039-03-03  5:58:55 0 [ERROR] This server doesn't support dates later than 2038

Seems to stem from This is due to
https://github.com/MariaDB/server/blob/11.5/sql/mysqld.cc#L3903-L3908


I am looking into this now as well..
