mariadb-10.5.8 build failing

I have tried building mariadb with several flag combination and each

time it fails. I have tried `--max-jobs=2 --cores=8`, `--max-jobs=1

--cores=2` and `--max-jobs=1 --cores=1`.

On an x86_64 computer when I run `guix build --no-substitutes

--max-jobs=1 --cores=1 --keep-failed mariadb` I get this error.

```

The build log says that this one test is failing:

perfschema.socket_connect

The build log is attached.

Hi!

Your bug is available at http://issues.guix.gnu.org/48151 and

through the usual 48151 at debbugs.gnu.org. However, it wasn't

sent to subscribers' inboxes because it was a whopping >9 MiB.

Like most mailing lists, bug-guix@ has a (generous) message size

limit. SMTP is not a broadcast protocol; copying a huge message

to each subscriber in turn is costly. Many subscribers have

limited connections or simply don't want to receive them.

It's great that you included the build log. Next time please

(don't de)compress it, or include only the last few 100 lines

which are usually enough to identify the problem.

You don't have to re-send this one.

Kind regards,

T G-R

Thank you

Moving forward when I submit a bug report the build or test suite logs

will be compressed attachments.

I have done further testing on the build failure of mariadb.

Trying to build other packages that depend on mariadb for x86_64 and

i686 result in different failures for the build of mariadb.

The build output for each of the following is attached.

** Failing test(s): perfschema.socket_connect

** Failing test(s): perfschema.transaction_nested_events

I am building the i686 packages with this command `guix build

--no-substitutes --system=i686-linux <package>`.

Hi,

I do not know if it is related but I note that the recent zstd change

seems to break mariadb, as reported here:

All the best,
