Package: mariadb-common Version: 10.1.37-0+deb9u1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
When upgrading the package mariadb-common doest not install properly with a message : update-alternatives: error: alternative path /etc/mysql/mariadb.cnf doesn't exist The only solution I found is to create a link in /etc/mysql : mariadb.cnf -> ./mysql.cnf and redo the upgrade with success. Note : That file "mariadb.cnf" does not exist on other machines with the same Mariadb version. Package was : mariadb-common_10.1.37-0+deb9u1_all.deb Regards JP P -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.2 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages mariadb-common depends on: ii mysql-common 5.8+1.0.3 mariadb-common recommends no packages. mariadb-common suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/mysql/mariadb.cnf changed [not included] -- no debconf information
