Hi Daniel,
thank you for your help on this bug report.
Could you confirm what step led to this situation?
Could you give me the following information:
- version of mariadb-common that you are installing (apt-get download
mariadb-common) ;
- copy paste the result of the following command:
$ dpkg
I have the same error:
update-alternatives: error: alternative path /etc/mysql/mariadb.cnf
doesn't exist
And this is content of /etc/mysql
ls /etc/mysql
conf.d mariadb.conf.d my.cnf my.cnf.fallback
