Public bug reported:

Please sync mariadb 1:11.8.6-4 (main) from Debian unstable (main)


Explanation of FeatureFreeze exception:

In the MariaDB 'main' inclusion review (bug 2122095) it was requested that a
new AppArmor profile should be created for MariaDB. It was, but to manage risk,
it was initially rolled out in 'complain' mode only. It was agreed that after
enough feedback and polish it would be set into 'enforce' mode, which was now
done in Debian and this is a request to sync that to Ubuntu.

There are no other changes. All these changes were done with extensive testing
and review in 
https://salsa.debian.org/mariadb-team/mariadb-server/-/merge_requests/158,
including a review by a Ubuntu Server Team member. In addition to Salsa CI,
the MR also documents specific testing using Ubuntu/Launchpad autopkgtests
triggered from the MariaDB PPA.


Changelog entries since current resolute version 1:11.8.6-3:

mariadb (1:11.8.6-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New AppArmor for mariadbd now in 'enforce' mode. See NEWS for details.
  * Additional refinement to make the AppArmor and related autopkgtest as
    robust as possible:
    - Add patch to have mariadb-test-run not write in
      /usr/share/mariadb/mariadb-test/ to not violate the AppArmor profile
    - Normalize variables 'aria-checkpoint-interval' and 'aria-recover-options'
      to documented defaults as they seem to be effect in Ubuntu binaries now,
      while Debian binaries seem to default to zero and empty for an unknown
      reason.
    - Ensure AppArmor diagnostics run even when autopkgtests fail to catch
      potential situations where autopkgtests job 'upstream' violated the
      AppArmor profile.
    - Simplify AppArmor profile, allow 'mariadb' aliases and unify indentation.
    - Extend AppArmor profile to cover all easily testable features
      (Closes: #1130272).
