   We are not going to fix it. Maria DB is not officially supported and will break. See:
   
   https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/installation/prerequisites.html?highlight=mariadb
   
   > Despite big similarities between MariaDB and MySQL, we DO NOT support MariaDB as a backend for Airflow. There are known problems (for example index handling) between MariaDB and MySQL and we do not test our migration scripts nor application execution on Maria DB. We know there were people who used MariaDB for Airflow and that cause a lot of operational headache for them so we strongly discourage attempts of using MariaDB as a backend and users cannot expect any community support for it because the number of users who tried to use MariaDB for Airflow is very small.
