 Description   

Hi there,

Trying to install MariaDB 10.7.3 using the official procedure (ref. https://mariadb.com/kb/en/installing-mariadb-deb-files/#installing-mariadb-packages-with-apt) on Ubuntu 21.10 Server (Impish Indri) for system architecture arm64 the following problem appears, preventing the installation to complete successfully:

requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

*The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mariadb-client : Depends: mariadb-client-10.7 (>= 1:10.7.3+maria~impish) but it is not installable
mariadb-server : Depends: mariadb-server-10.7 (>= 1:10.7.3+maria~impish) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.*

Kindly note that I already opened another similar bug report, MDEV-26024 less than a year ago, on June 2021.

It seems you may have you automatic build workflow for arm64 broken somewhere, as the problem also happened on 10.6

Thank you!

There were some issues with the last release based on builders of debian that didn't have an up to date apt cache (MDBF-347) which seems to have largely affect aarch64 builds.

This was significantly reworked in (MDEV-28153) to not be so fragile.

I just tested the about to be released 10.6 packages as follows:

$ podman run --arch arm64 -ti  ubuntu:21.10 bash
