[Bug 1417328] [NEW] Please remove mariadb-5.5 from vivid

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Community member Otto Kekäläinen has done a good job keeping our MariaDB
packages updated with latest from upstream. This is no small task. While
preparing the 5.5.41 updates, he asked that we drop the mariadb-5.5
package from vivid and newer -- he would rather see vivid and newer
users on mariadb-10.0, instead, which is already packaged.

The maintenance burden is high enough that I do not think anyone else
will step forward to maintain mariadb-5.5 on vivid and newer releases.

mariadb-5.5 is removed from Debian.

Please remove mariadb-5.5 from vivid and newer releases.
