Debian 8. Moving from MySql to MariaDB. Have tried the following and iterations of it.

<<code>>
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 0xcbcb082a1bb943db
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb [arch=amd64,i386,ppc64el] http://sfo1.mirrors.digitalocean.com/mariadb/repo/10.2/debian jessie main'<</code>>

<<code>>
apt-get install mariadb-server mariadb-client<</code>>

This leads to the following:
