I have been getting the following error message after updates or installing from the repositories in Ubuntu/Pinguy 11.04 E: mariadb-server-5.3: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1.

I have no problems using MariaDB and Synaptic shows the installed version as 5.3.2 for both client and server.

There is a known problem with Apparmor. See http://askmonty.org/blog/ornery-oneiric/ for a work-around (the workaround will work on both natty and oneiric).

Current MariaDB packages have incorporated a fix for the issue. So be sure to submit a bug report if you run into the error in the future.
