Bug Description

I was upgrading MySQL 5.7 (both client and server) to MariaDB 10.1 (client and server) and I got the following error:

Looks like this is still present in Groovy? MySQL seems to have it in the client (or client-core) package all the way through, but MariaDB has it in the server package all the way through.

The easiest way to resolve this is to decide whether it should be in the client package or in the server package, and then make that consistent across both MySQL and MariaDB.

Upgrade to MariaDB 10.3 if you were running MySQL 5.7.

From Oracle MySQL 5.7 you need to upgrade to MariaDB 10.2 or newer. Downgrading to MySQL 5.6 or MariaDB 10.1 is not supported.
