Gang,

I've installed MariaDB on several Debian/Ubuntu systems in the past few
months, without any issues.

~2 days ago on an Unbuntu 12.10 system did an apt-get
update/upgrade/dist-upgrade. I believe that MariaDB was updated in that
process. After the updates, mysql was "gone" My apps couldn't find it, it
wasn't running, etc. I was in a hurry so I had to fall back to the standard
mysql package so not a lot of into there.

I built a new Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server, added the Maria repo, did an apt-get
update/ugprade/dist-upgrade. Rebooted.


Here's some output... I'm stuck in this loop.
