Sorry for not responding earlier, I was to busy with other things. Still, I should have reacted earlier ... As you might have seen, mariadb-10.1 10.1.37-0+deb9u1 is in stable-new queue[1]. I don't know the details why it didn't proceed to stable yet, but there's hope that this issue will be sorted out in Stretch soon. The 10.1.37 contains both the upstream backport of `innodb_default_row_format`[2] and the patch to the config[3] that sets the default row format to `dynamic`, so the `max key length is 767 bytes` error is definitely fixed in this release. Therefore I don't think it's still *needed* to upload the patch that PEB poposed in this bugreport. I don't *object* to uploading it either. So if you want to, go ahead, PEB. But we should track the mariadb 10.1 version in Stretch and remove the Debconf question again once mariadb 10.1.37 got accepted into Stretch.
