1) The MySQL configuration file name changed of the MySQL configuration file (/etc/my.conf vs. /etc/my.cnf). This breaks all the known documentation for this package. 2) The MySQL directory containing the local socket MUST be world readable at least, but is 700 (/var/lib/mysql).
Tried the one in Rawhide?
Fixed in 3.23.24-1 - thanks for the report.
Verified that the new packages do include these fixes.
