So Koha uses DBD::mysql but the MariaDB client library is interchangeable with
the MySQL client library. So I referenced mysql.h before... that file is used
for both MySQL and MariaDB. 

Looking again... I realise that I was thinking of Ubuntu rather than Debian.
Ubuntu comes with both but Debian only has the MariaDB client library. It looks
like Debian "sid" has added mysql-client back in but stable versions don't have
it. You'd have to look at sourcing it (and its dependencies) from elsewhere. 

For instance, you can do "wget
https://dev.mysql.com/get/mysql-apt-config_0.8.36-1_all.deb";, apt install that,
and then you have an interactive configuration of an apt repo source. 

After that, you can run the following:

apt-get remove mariadb-client
apt-get remove mariadb-client-core
apt-get install mysql-client

Now I'm not recommending this per se... but it's how you *could* do it.
