What were you trying to do that didn't work?

The mysql_install_db command consistently fails. The command is executed right after mariadb-server is installed.

```
$ sudo mysql_install_db --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql
Installing MariaDB/MySQL system tables in '/var/lib/mysql' ...

Installation of system tables failed!  Examine the logs in
/var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log or /var/lib/mysql for more information.

The problem could be conflicting information in an external
my.cnf files. You can ignore these by doing:

    shell> /bin/mysql_install_db --defaults-file=~/.my.cnf

You can also try to start the mariadbd daemon with:

    shell> /usr/libexec/mariadbd --skip-grant-tables --general-log &

and use the command line tool /usr/bin/mariadb
to connect to the mysql database and look at the grant tables:

    shell> /usr/bin/mariadb -u root mysql
    MariaDB> show tables;

Try '/usr/libexec/mariadbd --help' if you have problems with paths.  Using
--general-log gives you a log in /var/lib/mysql that may be helpful.

The command fails because provider_lz4.so can't be loaded.

```
$ sudo cat /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log
2024-02-15  1:04:14 0 [ERROR] mariadbd: Can't open shared library '/usr/provider_lz4.so' (errno: 2, cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
2024-02-15  1:04:14 0 [ERROR] Couldn't load plugins from 'provider_lz4.so'.
2024-02-15  1:04:14 0 [ERROR] /usr/libexec/mariadbd: unknown variable 'provider_lz4=force_plus_permanent'
2024-02-15  1:04:14 0 [ERROR] Aborting
```

The direct trigger was `/etc/my.cnf.d/provider_lz4.cnf` added in the latest mariadb-server package, and the command succeeds if I remove that file.

The problem is not seen if mariadb:10.11 module is disabled. The known version without this problem is 10.5.22-1 .
