I guess option B is best for now. You don't need to be a MySQL/MariaDB expert in any way to submit patches regarding the packaging. I am sure you are in Debian packaging an expert or more. This package is huge and there is a lot of work maintaining it, so we would prefer patches via Salsa (as many other Debian packges too now and even more so in the future). The MR process will automatically test and verify that your patch has no obvious regressions. https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/MySQL/patches
