Hello,
I do not know if it's wanted, but it misses the dependency on libqt5sql5-mysql in the installation of the mumble-server package. Without this, you can not use MySQL/MariaDB with mumble-server.
Best regards,
Benjamin Cuoq

I've been thinking about this, and I think this could be dealt with by changing
the Depends: for mumble-server as such:

Depends: libqt5sql5-sqlite|libqt5sql5-mysql

Because users need one or the other, but mumble-server does not depend on both
at the same time. This would give users of mysql the ability to install
mumble-server without needing to install sqlite, and likewise would allow users
of sqlite to install mumble-server without having to install mysql.

By default mumble-server installs and is used with sqlite, so I'll want to test
a package with the above Depends: change to see what the behavior is when
installing the mysql-server package on a system that has never had it installed;
the desired behavior would be for apt to install libqt5sql5-sqlite by default
and have libqt5sql5-mysql as another option the user could choose manually.

Another option would be to keep Depends: libqt5sql5-sqlite as-is and then add a
Suggests: libqt5sql5-mysql for mumble-server.
