for me, akonadi / mysql doesn’t start after the update.

mysqld also didn’t start due to permissions, so i tried chmod -R 777 /var/lib/mysql, that way mysqld at least tries to start but yields somthing like
[ERROR] Could not open mysql.plugin table: “Table ‘mysql.plugin’ doesn’t exist”. Some plugins may be not loaded

I found various threads around the internet regarding mysql/mariadb/akonadi-updates, but none that had this specific issues (and none of the solutions there helped)
Anyone got any idea? Should i create a new thread or should i try downgrading mariadb and hope the second attempt works? ^^
