Title:
  Package won't work with mariadb-client

Status in automysqlbackup package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in automysqlbackup source package in Trusty:
  Triaged
Status in automysqlbackup package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * automysqlbackup doesn't work with MariaDB as it installs mysql-
  client instead.  This is mainly due to the depends line depending on
  mysql-client and not including virtual-mysql-client as an OR in the
  dependencies.

  [Test Case]

   * Install mariadb-client.

   * Attempt to install automysqlbackup.

   * Current state in Trusty: FAIL: Dependencies not satisfied.

   * With the change: Package installation should work as expected.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Very very low.  This shouldn't introduce new problems as it only
  adds an 'OR' to the depends for the package.

  [Other Info]

   * The solution is to add a single OR to the dependencies.  This was
  already done in later releases of Ubuntu, and Debian.

  [Original Description]

  Package depends on mysql-client, should depend on virtual-mysql-client.
  It has been fixed in newer releases (14.10+).
  See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=732878 for Debian handling of this issue.
