For the record, I support Robie on this. The packages mysql and
mariadb have been designed to co-exist and both seem to have a user
base big enough to justify them being included in Debian. If only one
of them would be included in Debian, it must be decided by the
tech-ctte then.
If you like MariaDB more, please then advocate it, so that packagers
and users can migrate to it in their own pace. Forcing a transition
upon users is not in line with the Debian spirit, I think.
