Thank you, Matt. I appreciate the feedback. I've filed a couple bugs
against mysql-server and mariadb-server. Either they should depend on
some syslog or they should their installation scripts should be written
to detect a logger and function accordingly.
Hopefully someone will get a move on. If not, I've got gafer tape in
place. Actually it's probably more like chewing gum...!
Cheers,
Simon

Is probably the order I had to do things. Note the changing of permissions.
Whether this has any relevance to your issue or not I don't know.
I'll be under my rock if you wish to ignore me.

This sounds very familiar. Though I think I was using Slackware
installing from slack builds. My hand written notes say something
about mysql_install_db --user=...
Left the /var/lib/mysql/ with the wrong permissions.
Or something.
And something to do with running mysql_secure_installation instead.
Maybe that might help.
It's been a while. And due to the evidence of my handwriting I'm
afraid I appear to have been terribly, terribly, drunk.

What you said. ;-> MariaDB is a 100% compatible workalike
(binary drop-in replacement).

Same installation bug(?) with mariadb.
bash /usr/bin/mysql_install_db --rpm --user=mysql --disable-log-bin
2>&1 | $ERR_LOGGER
I thought it would be the case. As it is drop-in replacemen, there is
not really any reason to re-write the package scripts. So I guess I
should report this to two package maintainers.
Thanks for reminding me of mariadb.
