Hi. While investigating the original error, I did research (and use) both pwck and grpck. Indeed, pwck was complaining about ab missing lib directory for mysql, which did lead to discovering the problem with mariadb. After the bug fix, no problems from either pwck -r or grpck -r. Thanks for the pointer to /usr/lib/systemd/system/shadow.service. I was assuming that it might be something that runs on startup and then goes away. But, you know what happens when you "assume". Thanks again.
