Hi, I created a patch for amarok that switches to using mariadb. I don't see how the current mysql-defaults system can be used in amarok, as there is no default-mysqld-dev package.

It would be great If this could get reviewed and if acceptable uploaded to unstable so we can get an amarok in stretch. Thanks, Maxi
