Comment (by chrstphrchvz):

 Replying to [comment:3 chrstphrchvz]:
 > You will not find any prebuilt MySQL/MariaDB ports, because they are
 built with OpenSSL 1.1, which MySQL/MariaDB themselves being licensed
 under GPL do not allow binary redistribution of (this condition may go
 away if the ports are migrated to OpenSSL 3, which is GPL compatible).

 MySQL/MariaDB ports have been migrated to OpenSSL 3, so this should no
 longer be an issue. However, even though OpenSSL 1.1-GPL incompatibility
 was previously why MacPorts claimed it could not offer prebuilt
 MySQL/MariaDB ports, this may not have reflected whether either of these
 upstream projects may actually have granted an OpenSSL linking exception
 (applicable to unofficial 3rd-party binary distributions). For example,
 MySQL licensing since 5.6 has the following text
 [https://downloads.mysql.com/docs/licenses/mysqld-5.6-gpl-en.pdf]:
 >This distribution of MySQL 5.6.46 (and later) is distributed with certain
 software (including but not limited to OpenSSL) that is licensed under
 separate terms, as designated in a particular file or component or in the
 license documentation. Without limiting your rights under the GPLv2, the
 authors of MySQL hereby grant you an additional permission to link the
 program and your derivative works with the separately licensed software
 that they have included with the program.
