It seems that Ubuntu repo maintainers have dropped support for
`libmysql-java` in favor of `libmariadb-java` which results in a very
annoying situation where we have to manually download and install the
connector and can no longer rely on apt to keep the connector updated
because Guacamole seems to rely on the 'com.mysql.jdbc.Driver' class
explicitly where as `libmariadb-java` uses `org.mariadb.jdbc.Driver`

Which means that in Ubuntu < 19 we could do this:
apt install libmysql-java
ln -s /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar /etc/guacamole/lib/

But we can no longer do that as libmysql-java isn't a valid library in
Ubuntu 19. The recommendation seems to be to use libmariadb-java but
obviously that's not working w/o changes to Guacamole?

Is there a way around this other than downloading the jar from the MySQL
website?
