I have heard of it, but never actually tested it.

FWIW we've been using this config for ~10 years now and this is only the
4th time it's bitten us (albeit one of the worst).

Perhaps it's time to have a closer look at unattended-upgrades?!

Pretty sure it's because we don't have libconfig-inifiles-perl installed
by default, which appears to (now?) be a 'depends' of mariadb-client-10.1.

FWIW we have apt configured to only install 'depends' and I assume that
it has moved from a 'recommends' to a 'depends' although that is only a
guess...
