We don't have Ubuntu Bionic packages available yet. The goal is to have them for the next MariaDB 10.1 release. The script will be updated to support Ubuntu Bionic shortly before the release.

Actually I misspoke. The mariadb_repo_setup script only supports MariaDB 10.2, so the next MariaDB 10.2 release is when the updated script and Ubuntu 18.04 bionic packages will be available.

With the release of MariaDB Server 10.2.15, the script has been updated to support Ubuntu 18.04 bionic.

There is one issue left. The script sets up three repositories, MariaDB Server, MariaDB MaxScale, and a Tools repository. The primary purpose of this repository is to hold alternative third-party tools like Percona XtraBackup. There is no XtraBackup for Ubuntu 18.04 yet, and so this repository will return the following error:

E: The repository 'http://downloads.mariadb.com/Tools/ubuntu bionic Release' does not have a Release file.
 
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
 
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
 
[error] Failed to add trusted package signing keys.

I'm working today on getting the Tools repository fixed so that it doesn't give the error. This error doesn't affect the MariaDB MaxScale or MariaDB Server repositories, they are working fine.

The tools repository now has xtrabackup deb files for ubuntu bionic
