    Description

      Note: Since it's not happening on 10.2, I don't really expect it to be fixed, but I need it filed so that we could disable the test in buildbot. For 10.2, issues are a bit different and described in MDEV-14384.

      I cannot meaningfully summarize what works where and how, here is the empirical status of trusty-ppc64le and jessie-ppc64le as of Nov 18, 2017:

      Summary for trusty-ppc64le

        5.5 10.0 10.1 10.2
      mariadb-server
      mariadb-client
      mariadb-test
      libmariadbclient18
      mariadb-server + mariadb-client
      mariadb-server + mariadb-test
      mariadb-server + libmariadbclient18
      mariadb-server + libmariadbclient18 + mariadb-client
      mariadb-server + libmariadbclient18 + mariadb-test
      mariadb-server + mariadb-client + mariadb-test
      mariadb-server + libmariadbclient18 + mariadb-client + mariadb-test

      Note the line mariadb-server + mariadb-test which is especially strange – separately mariadb-server and mariadb-test are installable on 10.0 / 10.1, but together they are not.

      Summary for jessie-ppc64le

        5.5 10.0 10.1 10.2
      mariadb-server
      mariadb-client
      mariadb-test
      libmariadbclient18
      mariadb-server + mariadb-client
      mariadb-server + mariadb-test
      mariadb-server + libmariadbclient18
      mariadb-server + libmariadbclient18 + mariadb-client
      mariadb-server + libmariadbclient18 + mariadb-test
      mariadb-server + mariadb-client + mariadb-test
      mariadb-server + libmariadbclient18 + mariadb-client + mariadb-test

      On x86_64 and i386 I'm not getting the above-mentioned problems.
