Comment (by RJVB):

 I haven't traced this to see who depends on the mysql plugin but it would
 seem that a path:-style depspec has been replaced with an explicit
 depspec, or an update to a shared dependency introduced this new depspec.

 I'd also raise the question why there have to individual mysql5 and
 mariadb plugins. AFAIK the whole idea after MariaDB is that it's a drop-in
 replacement for the regular MySql. The corresponding Qt5  plugin uses
 variants, but it would certainly be possible to use only path:-style
 depspecs (if port:mysql5x and port:mariadb were mutually exclusive
 alternatives).
