It's worth a try. Given that we just have 4 dependent packages for mysql
it could simply be applied.
Since mariadb usually just works in place of
mysql (https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/mariadb-vs-mysql-compatibility/),
could we attempt to replace and support mysql in kodi with mariadb?

They seem to support mariadb (https://kodi.wiki/view/MySQL):

  MySQL Protocol & MariaDB
  When setting up shared Library databases either MySQL or Maria DB can be used as they both use the same MySQL protocol. Since many Linux distributions have dropped including MySQL and now instead now ship MariaDB it is being more common to use MariaDB for shared Library databases.
