The 'koha-common' package doesn't include MySQL or MariaDB. It requires a database server, and only suggests that you could install the 'mysql-server' package (or the 'virtual-mysql-server'). Our instructions tell you to install the database server BEFORE installing 'koha-common'. And you can choose to install MariaDB or MySQL. Both serve the purpose and the 'koha-common' installer understands that it has the right DB server (either will make virtual-mysql-server be marked as installed).
So you need to: $ sudo apt install mariadb-server or $ sudo apt install mysql-server before installing the 'koha-common' package.
