No please don't clutter the rpm database with that. This package is an
exception. The problem is that softwares using the embedded mysql server
(libmysqld.x) directly needs the errmsg.sys file, otherwise libmysqld barfs. In
redhat these (except english) are also under %lang control.

If so preferably under a new user (maxscale), but I don't really know how to do
that in a good way. Using su? How to do that in systemd?
