Control: reassign -1 mariadb-server-10.1
Control: severity -1 normal
Control: tags -1 +moreinfo
Dear Fabián,
as a first thing, have you read README.Debian that comes with the MARIADB
server? The online copy is here:
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-mysql/mariadb-10.1.git/tree/debian/mariadb-server-10.1.README.Debian?h=master-stretch#n28
If that doesn't help then please provide more information:
- what exactly you did, the exact steps to reproduce the issue you are
having, the "I did everything" isn't very informative as "everything" might
include different steps for different people
- what does "it does not work"
Also please don't mix several issues in one bug report.
And finally - jumping off the high horse would allow to look into Debian
MySQL maintainers mailing list and find this thread with the reasoning
behind the mysql-transitional package:

Cheers,
Ondřej

First mistake is to call the mysql-server package, because you would be
lying to everyone.

Now I come to explain my problem.
Does not allow me to assign a root password.
I did everything that says there but it does not work.
