This bug was fixed in the package mariadb - 1:11.8.6-5
---------------
mariadb (1:11.8.6-5) unstable; urgency=medium
* New mariadb-server installs will now use /var/lib/mariadb as the default
data directory. See NEWS for details.
- Determine whether to use /var/lib/mysql or /var/lib/mariadb during
mariadb-server preinst and postinst.
- On purge, remove /var/lib/mariadb, and /var/lib/mysql only if owned by
mariadb.
- d/p/set-default-datadir-to-var-lib-mariadb.patch: Update compile-time
INSTALL_MYSQLDATADIR_DEB setting to /var/lib/mariadb.
- d/mariadb-server.mariadb.init: Default to /var/lib/mariadb if datadir is
not specified in config.
- d/additions/50-server.cnf: Update default datadir in comment to
/var/lib/mariadb.
- Update autopkgtests to match new data directory expectations.
- Apport: Include /var/lib/mariadb data directory info in report.
- Salsa CI: Confirm correct datadir is in use for each test and add list of
/var/lib/mariadb files as test artifact.
* Use mariadb_upgrade_info/mysql_upgrade_info version files instead of
generated flag files to detect active data directory and downgrade
attempts.
