Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 59000 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine.

Besides having the latest version available, what do Debian users who run MariaDB wish to see in future versions of MariaDB, or how it is integrated and packaged in Debian?

I am the maintainer in Debian - looking for feedback and ideas.

Every time I set up a new server I need to copy the config off a similar other server.

Instead, could you include a way to more quickly set up sensible defaults for various basic scenarios? e.g. leave the defaults alone in a 'Dev machine' scenario but options for 'web server' where you typically want mariadb to use 25% of RAM and another option for 'standaline dB server' where you want mariadb to use basically everything.
