It would be nice to have MariaDB support in Virtualmin. Since MariaDB is 100% binary compatible with MySQL, it works as a drop-in replacement just fine. The only problem (at least on Debian) is that Virtualmin packages are dependent on MySQL. So if I want to install the MariaDB package to replace MySQL, dpkg wants to uninstall Virtualmin. It would be enough (in my opinion) to leave the dependency on the mysql-common package (which remains installed for mariadb).

You could try un-installing MySQL with the
--ignore-dependsflag to dpkg.Submitted by Hal9000 on Wed, 04/08/2015 - 05:04 Comment #2
