[debian-mysql] Bug#1058706: mariadb-server-core: mariadbd fails to start on fresh install on armel

[Scott Barker]

Package: mariadb-server-core
Version: 1:10.11.6-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

On a fresh install of mariadb on armel architecture, mariadb fails to start.
This happens with the version of mariadb in Debian stable (bookworm, version
1:10.11.4-1~deb12u1) and Debian testing (trixie, version 1:10.11.6-1). There
were no existing databases, and the folder /var/lib/mysql did not exist prior
to the install.

Here is the error shown when dpkg perform the install and tries to start mariadbd:
