Ok. I can reproduce this.

after the install here is the conf directories:

find /etc/mysql/ -ls
260377    4 drwxr-xr-x   4 root     root         4096 Mar 14 22:40 /etc/mysql/

260519    4 -rw-r--r--   1 root     root          306 Feb  8 12:32 /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/mysqld_safe.cnf
260521    4 -rw-r--r--   1 root     root         2715 Feb  8 12:32 /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/mysqld.cnf

This fails as the  /etc/mysql/my.cnf from mysql-common is used.

after doing the obscure instructions in the output:

rm /etc/mysql/my.cnf && ln -s mariadb.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf

Solid packaging should to this without the user.

The unix_socket plugin is loaded as this is specified in /etc/mysql/mariadb.cnf

This has been raised as an issue https://github.com/ottok/mariadb-10.0/issues/10

Given the contents on mysql-common can it be removed as a dependency (and added as conflicting package), mariadb-common to install /etc/mysql/conf.d (not sure if needed) and add the symlink?

These kind of alterations require a deeper understanding of debian policy and practice than I am familiar with.
