The used Mysql-Server was not at the same machine (we use MariaDB in a network, the Mysql-Server was on my local machine for comparison, both machines uses Ubuntu). I know that MariaDB is a drop-in-replacement.
Both Ubuntu-Packages should use openssl (the variables had show the use of openssl).
It could be possible, that the switch from the MariaDB Server + Client to Mysql-Server + Client on my local machine (at first it was a comparison between another MariaDB-Server and the used MariaDB-Server in the network - later it was a comparison between MariaDB-Server in the network and the local Mysql-Server) lead to a conflict (configuration files). For a fresh install for rechecking this aspect I need some time.
Interesting for me was using the Connector/J over SSL with MariaDB. The other client and server programs was only for getting the scope of occuring an error.
Please note that have_openssl server variable is just a synonym of have_ssl, it does not really show whether the server uses openssl or yassl (see MySQL Manual). Running ldd on the server or client binary would be more reliable.
