automysqlupdate package for Ubuntu 14.04 is not compatible with mariadb

[barraponto]

I just added the host to the debops_mariadb_server and ran debops.
I got the following error:

I tried adding mysql-client to the mariadb_server_packages variable, but it failed too.
Here's the log: https://gist.github.com/barraponto/d26d1fa3d8fec6bc6ff6

The automysqlbackup package for Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 can't be installed together with mariadb-client. It was fixed in Debian Jessie and newer versions of Ubuntu (14.10+).

Ubuntu Trusty package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/automysqlbackup
Debian Jessie package: https://packages.debian.org/jessie/automysqlbackup
Debian packaging thread: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=732878

This is being discussed upstream in Ubuntu:

So, it looks like Ubuntu team will try and backport the fix to Trusty. In the meantime, you could try switching the mariadb_server_flavor to mysql, it should work fine then. After you test it, it can be added to the flavor map to fix the issue on Trusty for the time being.

It seems that the problem with automysqlbackup in Ubuntu Trusty has been fixed, according to the Ubuntu bug database linked above. Due to that, I'm closing this issue.
