 As I understand it, Debian is no longer able to distribute MariaDB built against readline as the former is GPL2 and the latter GPL3, and apparently the 2 are incompatible for distribution.
-The following instructions build a new Debian packages against readline:
-  apt install build-essential devscripts libreadline-dev
-  apt build-dep mariadb-client-core-10.5
-  apt build-dep libreadline-dev
-  su <unpriv user>
-  apt source mariadb-client-core-10.5
-  cd mariadb-10.5-10.5.19/
 For Bookworm:
+  # Ensure that latest source packages are pulled:
+  apt-get update
+  # Install build dependencies
   apt install build-essential devscripts libreadline-dev
   apt build-dep mariadb
   apt build-dep readline
   su <unpriv user>
+  # Get sources
   apt source mariadb
-  cd mariadb-10.11.6/
+  cd mariadb-10.11.19/
 Edit ''debian/changelog'' and add new line at top. Version number should be incremented by adding a letter on the end. E.g.
-  mariadb-10.5 (1:10.5.19-0+deb11u2c) bullseye; urgency=medium
+  mariadb (1:10.11.19-0+deb12u1a) bookworm-security; urgency=medium
     * Build against readline instead of libedit
