It is known that the maintainers of MariaDB deprecate the database files
residing under /home, in fact going so far as making it an error, unless
/usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service has ProtectHome=true commented out.
Now, this is all very well, and I'm sure there are good reasons for it,
but I want my databases to reside in /home. Unfortunately, each time
there's an upgrade to the package my preferred setting gets overwritten,
resulting in MariaDB failing to start, and my having to edit the service
file on a number of machines.
I'd consider this a bug, but is there at least any way of making my
change more permanent?
