Also, maybe people should not use as their commit email addresses that don't work?

Hello!
If you make changes to debian/*, please file a PR and mark me as a reviewer.
It would save a lot of time and this could have easily been avoided:
https://github.com/MariaDB/server/commit/5ca14dafbee8a1877ac30e955616e9ecea7... https://github.com/MariaDB/server/commit/e3fc9c1db04bdc5566bcdafcc3d51591990...

Hello!
While working on putting MariaDB 10.5.5 into Debian I noticed that there were a couple of commits that landed more or less on the same day as the release was made and "broke" it just before release. Now there are surprises in a stable release I need to fix and the situation puts extra strain on me.
It is good that many people participate in maintaining the contents of debian/ in the MariaDB Server, because I don't have time to do everything. I would however appreciate that when changes are made, I would be given a chance to review them. I will review them post-release anyway and it would save a lot of trouble, if we can fix stuff during the development cycle and not having to patch a post-release in order to be able to put it forward to Debian/Ubuntu.
So, please make PRs of any debian/ changes you make, and feel free to add me as the reviewer (or one of the reviewers).
This policy can also be automated using a .github/CODEOWNERS file, so I made a PR about it at https://github.com/MariaDB/server/pull/1650
Thanks!
PS. I will deliver a MariaDB 10.5 and MariaDB in Debian status talk at https://debconf20.debconf.org/talks/98-whats-new-in-mariadb-server-105-and-g... in case anybody is interested to listen in.
