Thank you, Sandro. The important work-around includes to install MariaDB/MySQL main server packages including their systemd service files / init scripts. So in case you do not like a system-wide mysqld process to be running use systemctl disable or even systemctl mask. As far as I remember the mysqld would just listen to localhost, so it should not be a security risk. Ciao, -- Martin
