Since version 10.1.24-6 the autopkgtests of MariaDB and dbconfig-common fail
where they passed before, both in Debian¹ and in Ubuntu². It seems MariaDB
isn't starting anymore.

See e.g.
https://ci.debian.net/data/packages/unstable/amd64/d/dbconfig-common/20170622_163550.log
which is the first failure in dbconfig-common 2.0.8.
