[Daniel Black <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Latest clean version: https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/2390

note https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/2382 is required as without it,
the compat packages are required.

Salsa happiness with two combined:

https://salsa.debian.org/grooverdan/mariadb-server/-/pipelines/473457

Lintian is noisy, but that was there already. WIP exists elsewhere to clean
it up.

Packages coming to https://ci.mariadb.org/31092/ in the next hr for
reference (has both #2382 and #2390)
from branch bb-11.0-danielblack-MDEV-30203-pkgtest-symlink-packages-salsa
(same as Salsa).
