mariadb-5.5.39-diff-trusty-utopic.diff shows what the differences are for 5.5.39 in Trusty and 5.5.39 in Utopic.
Utopic has a never version from Debian which has multiple packaging bugs fixed and no new "packaging features" added.
I think the latest and best packaging of MariaDB 5.5 (in Debian and Utopic) would be safe to put also in Trusty. I wonder what the correct process here is? Maybe use trusty-updates or trusty-backports to push a next MariaDB 5.5.xx package there?
It would be nice to have same MariaDB 5.5.xx in both Trusty on Utopic. MariaDB is approved for MRE (if it helps here).
