You're right.  I had a more recent version of MariaDB than the version
distributed by the "official" Ubuntu repositories.  The solution was found in
the 52011 bug report:  Enter

   sudo apt install mysql-common=5.8+1.0.5ubuntu2

before installing Wine 7.0.  That did the trick.  So far, MariaDB seems to work
fine after the downgrade.  However, I'm wondering why mysql-common is required
at all.  I know it's required by libmysqlclient21:i386 which is in turn
required by libsnmp35:i386 and that in turn by libsane:i386 and I can see why
libsane (which I believe is a library for scanner software) might be required
by Wine.  But what does MySQL have to do with any of that?
