New issue by Johnnynator on void-packages repository
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/26051
Description:
Our current MySQL version is ancient, nobody cares about it and it probably has a ton of CVEs,
but we link like everything against libmysqlclient instead of libmariadbclient.
Mariadb, while not updated with every release, is maintained far better than our MySQL packatge.

Comment:
Is mariadb sufficiently source compatible? Or would we need new patches for Qt and others?

Mariadb does it's best at keeping it compatible and all packages should work fine ootb. Quite a few distros don't even ship MySQL and only mariadb (e.g. Arch and Debian).
