Maria is a drop-in open source replacement for mysql. It also has many features that mysql has avoided adding (for future profit model?).
Mysql has already had some gaffs where they're hinting at closing up the source. It's pretty clear mysql is on the way out, but it may not be there yet. Can you compare the installed files to find a common one we can check for a path:-style dependency?
